Should I take jQuery course before going to the next stage?

3,058 PointsWell, I’m following JavaScript full stack track and I reached AJAX basic concepts. jQuery was mentioned in a previous course as a suggestion to take after I finished DOM, was not prerequisite. What is your advice? I’m in AJAX basics, Should I stop for taking jQuery first? It will be beneficial in Ajax or no ?
