luna Guo commented on TAP5-486:
-------------------------------
jQuery has thousands of plugins that i can use them easily without much
javascript experience.I can't leave it .Even i've written some code using
prototype,i have to include jQuery for using a lot of UI components.There's
hundreds kb of javascript for a page.
I think the javascript lib tapestry include must be small and a lot of UI can
be find.I like jQuery's "Write Less, Do More".
To use a small one,and never change it to another again.We don't want to
lean/use so many javascript frameworks.
> Switch Tapestry's built-in JavaScript support from Prototype to jQuery

> Key: TAP5-486

> Project: Tapestry 5
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: tapestry-core
> Affects Versions: 5.1.0.0

> Like rats deserting a sinking ship ...
> This is not a definitive requirement; I've created this issue to promote
> discussion.
> It's quite likely that a move like this could be accomplished quite smoothly
> for users who are meerly consumers of JavaScript components; authors of
> JavaScript components would have to make some changes.
> Possibly we should code the jQuery stack from the get-go to NOT use the $()
> method, but instead use j$(). That extra character to type could make all the
> difference is allowing a smooth upgrade, where jQuery becomes the default,
> but prototype/scriptaculous can still be used.
> Possibly a new annotation, @PrototypeSupport for components to ensure that
> the Prototype libraries are available for compatibility?
