I can remember the long structured blocks of JavaScript before jQuery was even an option. Nowadays this library has expanded to include hundreds(if not thousands) of free open source plugins. You can find a particular bit of functionality related to almost any page element on your website.
Specifically I’ve collected a list of 33 plugins useful for organizing user input. Things like form errors and submission messages, date/time pickers, select menus, along with many other examples. All of these are free to include on your next project and may save hours of time in development.
