I’m starting in hybrid development using Cordova (with visual studio) and in my research on javascript frameworks, I have found many people using Angularjs, and I was surprised that I can’t find anyone who uses and recommends Jquery (not Jquery Mobile). Why not use ? There is a why ?

This page recommends not using jQuery because it is a heavy library, and even jQuery UI and jQuery Mobile versions have poor performance, with jQuery Mobile in particular imposing a lot of rigidity.
This page provides some reasons why you shouldn’t use jQuery Mobile (which has jQuery as a dependency) on mobile apps, including being heavy, low performing, poorly documented and having a lot of bugs, and according to the website the reason is because jQM is aimed at mobile websites and not applications. In the comments section some disagree with this non-recommendation.
I also remember reading something about jQuery handling events click and not of touch, which would be the most suitable in mobile apps. Clicks have a delay of 300 milliseconds, which greatly impairs the responsiveness of the application.
