Today yes. Good luck with that back in the Internet Explorer 6 days. Cross browser compatibility is what motivated jquery in the first place, today it has played out its role as a cross browser DOM manipulation library.
Modern libraries such as React and Vue however play a totally different role. They introduce proper architecture to web development such as separating the view from your business logic with data binding, they can not be compared with jquery which was just a nicer way of doing the same old manual DOM manipulation.
