Hi devs,
Now that all the scripts on the Internets are implemented as jQuery
plugins, should we bite the bullet and make it easier for extensions
developers to integrate such scripts ?
Note it would not necessarily mean we use it ourselves in web/XE.
If we don't do something about it, there is the risk that many extensions
bring their own jQuery to the party, which will translate in slower page
loads and more importantly a less enjoyable extension developer experience.
An alternative idea would be an "official" jQuery extension (with a JSX)
that other extensions can depend upon, should they need jQuery.
Depends. Do you think we would loose much in performances if it's done
as a JSX compared to integrated to the WAR ?
The idea sounds better in theory if we don't plan to use it ourself in
XE at least. Another good thing with extension is that it would make
easier to have jQuery version you need for your extension and not have
to wait that XE embeds it.
What do you think ?
+1 in general to make jQuery users life easier
Jerome
