    Description

      YUI3 is Moodle's main Javascript library. It has come a long way from the early days, is well documented and quite capable.

      However, jQuery has emerged as the defacto library for use by developers around the web, and a lot more people have experience with it.

      To make it easier for people to write Moodle plugins that:

      • allow them to use their existing skills and save time
      • don't conflict with other plugins
      • can address specific versions of Moodle safely

      we should integrate jQuery in Moodle core in a standard way for those authors to use alongside YUI3.
