How jQuery works as a Client-Side language?

Hi, I new to Javascript and certainly new to jQuery. I having trouble understand the concept of jQuery as a Javascript framework.

I know that the jQuery framework is a list of precompiled Javascript object function and it has it's own object function "jQuery" or the alias short-sign "$" to access jQuery "library" or methods and in order to use jQuery, we need to download the libraries, is it right?

So how does it interpret in Client-Side? I know that Javascript had already implemented in the browser but what jQuery? What is the procedure?
