yes, and jquery is still useful in cases like this, despite the disdain most modern front-end devs have for it. the added weight is also not a big concern for any site not meant to serve millions of requests a day. it just has all of the core convenience methods you'd want, and a sane dev UX (unlike plain js).
i'd add that stimulus is another great alternative for sprinkles of front-end interactivity without going all-in on js tooling and a js framework. it pairs nicely with rails 7's new turbo feature to provide a full server-side rendering experience, similar to htmx.
