jQuery UI

About The Code

Full versions of jQuery UI are available in two formats:

• Compressed (which allows you to have a significantly smaller file size) and
• Uncompressed (good for debugging and to understand what is behind the magic).

jQuery UI is provided under the MIT and GPL licenses.

Build From Git

All source code is kept under Git revision control, which you can browse online. There's a download link available for any file or directory, if you only want to download a portion of the jQuery UI code.

If you have access to Git, you can connect to the repository here:

git clone git://github.com/jquery/jquery-ui.git

You can also check out a specific version of jQuery UI from GitHub at:

git clone git://github.com/jquery/jquery-ui.git
git checkout <version>
e.g. git checkout 1.8.2

If you want to build your own copy of jQuery UI from the Git repository, you will need to build it.

Build Requirements

jQuery UI build currently requires the following components to be installed:

• ant: A build system available on any platform with JDK and ANT installed
• java: A copy of Java, version 1.6.0 or later (required to build the minified version of jQuery UI).

Build Process

From the root of the jquery-ui repo:

• cd build
• ant
