The idea is to drop in and replace jquery on mobile.
- untog 15y agoThe idea is, sure, but can it? Zepto is supposed to be a drop-in replacement too, and it definitely isn't.
- werencole 15y agoWell, as an observer of these things, sign up for the beta and let me know how it works out.
- untog 15y agoMostly because it's almost impossible to know. It might work with all of the functionality I use on a normal day, but then I'll try to branch out at some point in the future and discover that it's broken. The developers are the ones who know what functionality is replicated and what isn't- going through myself and testing seems like a huge waste of time.
- davej 15y ago> Mostly because it's almost impossible to know. Not really, just run the Backbone test suite and substitute jQuery/Zepto with JQ.Mobi. It shouldn't pass straight away because I'm pretty sure that JQ.Mobi is missing a couple of the functions required by Backbone (see my post a couple of levels up) but it probably wouldn't be a huge deal to write them yourself.

- tomkr 15y agoThe claim they do not implement the majority of JQuery's APIs, only the most used ones, so I guess it depends on how much of JQuery you actually use.
