jQuery UI

jQuery UI could be included in the projects in many different ways and with different packages, instead of force you to use one, we leave up to you how to include it:

Modularized

Using npm i jquery-ui that install the package allowing to import the widgets you want.

We provided a file with the imports of the required dependencies:

import "jq-snap-puzzle/esm2015/jquery-ui-deps";

dist package

In npm is available the package jquery-ui-dist. Recommended if you will use the most of the framework.
