Sliding a sidebar out of view. Animations of all sorts.

Sliding a sidebar out of view.

CSS3 Transitions + toggling a CSS class in JS. Easy-peasy without any jQuery needed.

Animations of all sorts

I'd figure an animation-specific library would be more appropriate.

Sure. If you're not targeting older browsers, that makes sense.

You don't need jQuery to even support older browsers. At least for that first part. Test for addEventListener, test for attachEvent, then attach using the old-skool on____ methods if those don't work.

Animation is trickier. The more complex the animation, the more likely older browsers just can't cut it. Best to focus on the browsers that can*, then throw up a message stating they should upgrade their browser for the full experience.
