Remove jQuery bundled with the package about liquidslider HOT 9 CLOSED

Why not? It's a dependency and if I don't include it than a majority of the people downloading it will not understand it. 1) I get enough emails a day asking how to implement it and 2) I often see jQuery in repos here.

@KevinBatdorf gotcha. I'm used to including them via package managers, but I can understand what the target person who downloads this lib is.

Ah, I see where you're coming from now. Today I got an email asking how to center the slider on the page, so I try to make things as simple as possible :P

Yep, totally different approach ;)

Just imagine if I told my designers to use something like yeoman to bootstrap a project: "boot-what?!"

One argument for removing jQuery from liquidslider is that while jQuery is currently bundled with Liquidslider, it's an outdated version (1.8.2). If you remove it from liquidslider, people will link to or put it in it themselves, ensuring they use the latest version.

Actually, a better solution may be to just include the latest version.

Good call, I updated to the most recent.

In case someone reads this later, I ended up removing jQuery and putting a link to the CDN inside the demo. That makes more sense anyway, I think.

That actually makes more sense. It'll probably be much faster, too.
