noUiSlider is lightweight plugin, developed to be a jQuery UI alternative. It features cross-browser support, a just-another-input-type style of getting and setting values, a wide range of options and support for a bunch of touch devices. It works wonders on Android phones, iPhone & iPad, Windows phone and touch-screen laptops and tablets. It works excellent on the desktop too; All modern browsers and IE7+ are supported. The end result? A lean, extendible and bloat-less plugin that'll just do its job. To add even more flexibility, noUiSlider is compatible with both jQuery and Zepto.js. Oh, and the licensing terms are simple: just do what you want.

An extensive documentation, including examples, options and configuration details, is available here: noUiSlider documentation.

Changelog for version 6.2.0: (Compatible with 6.0.0)

• Removed the previously added .classVal and replaced it with a lightweight solution.
• Fixed a bug in non-linear stepping for RTL sliders. (#262)
• Added checks for min and max in range. (#255)
• Added the minified version in the source, so it can be managed with Bower. (#252)

Changelog for version 6.0.0:

Please note: noUiSlider 6 is a major revision, which means it isn't compatible with version 5. Your stylesheet will keep working, but the JavaScript API has changed, and your current implementation will no longer work.

• Added optional non-linear ranges, including stepping.
• Added new behaviour settings.
• Added object-oriented serialization.
• Change events to use jQuery's/Zepto's .on and .off.
• Removed block event.

Unit tests where added with noUiSlider 6. Coverage of $.Link and value handling is near complete, but due to the sensitivity of events across browsers, event testing is a little lacking.

Version numbering follows the 'Semantic versioning' style. You'll find an excellent documentation at Semver.org.

The plugin code is checked using (JsLint). Any remaining errors and warnings are intentional.

The plugin is compressed using the (Google Closure Compiler). The source was adapted to facilitate the ADVANCED_OPTIMIZATIONS level. $.Link is merged into the file. On Windows, the following BAT script can be used to run the compiler. On OS X or Linux enviroments, simply run the java -jar command from the command line.

@echo off

:: Set all paths as variables
set "jquery=.\externs\jquery-1.8.js"
set "link=..\source\Link.js"
set "source=..\source\jquery.nouislider.js"
set "result=..\source\jquery.nouislider.min.js"

:: Remove the existing file so we can be sure a new one is generated.
if exist %result% (
	del %result%
)

echo "Removed %result%, ready."

PAUSE

java -jar .\compiler\compiler.jar --compilation_level ADVANCED_OPTIMIZATIONS --externs %jquery% --warning_level VERBOSE --js %link% --js %source% --js_output_file %result%

echo "Done."
PAUSE

There are some minor issues remaining in noUiSlider. It is a priority to fix these issues, but they may be fixed by browser updates in the future.

• Firefox and Safari on Windows will emulate mouse-events on touch screens, but prefer scrolling to dragging the slider.
