Is jQuery still the go-to JS helper library?

What do you mean about animations?
Every use-case I can think about is already well supported by vanilla css/js without libraries or frameworks. (not including really out-there use-cases like game engines or image editors)
Can you give an example?
I think you're forgetting about the Animation API.
Example: making something flash once to get a user's attention
Use CSS animations everywhere you can, but if you need to be able to hook into an animation (to dynamically change the speed, cancel something, sync animations together, etc...) you should be using the Animation API.
There's never a need for jQuery.
