jQuery Version History

Version 1.0 was the first stable release of jQuery. Versions 2.0 dropped support for Internet Explorer 6-8 to increase jQuery's overall performance and reduce the library's file size. With the release of version 3.0 both versions 1.11.1 and 2.1.1 will be upgraded to jQuery Compat 3.0 and jQuery 3.0. With the release of Version 3.0 there's no reason to stick to either version 1.0 or 2.0. You can check the full details of... jQuery release history , and also you can check jQuery Core...
