Downgrade jQuery dependency version about twitter-bootstrap-nuget HOT 6 CLOSED

thanks for posting! I'm actually basing the version of jquery on the version they use themselves on the documentation site. You'll see if you inspect getbootstrap.com that they are actually using jquery 1.11.0 <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.0/jquery.min.js"></script> . Because of this I will most likely change the jquery dependency to 1.11.0 on the next package release.

I respect your reasoning, but I don't think that the source code of the
documentation website should be leading in this case.
Dependency management is made explicit in the bower.json file.
Off course I can't force you to change the jQuery dependency to 1.9, but I
hope you will reconsider.

I certainly understand. Some people would prefer the choice to upgrade given that the min supported version is 1.9. However this the first opinion I've heard on this, so I'll just leave this issue open for now to see if there are others who support this as well. I think most, myself included, would prefer to use the latest supported version instead of the minimum required version. There is rarely a benefit to not doing this, other than issue with cross dependencies. Nuget unfortunately doesn't handle all of those scenarios and could automatically update jquery project wide when another package may set a version ceiling on their jquery dependency. Because of that fact, I could see a compelling argument for only taking dependency on the min required version to avoid potential conflicts with other packages.

going to address this in issue #36

Great news! Thank you Chris!
What made you change your mind?

Ultimately I just came to agree with you that this should be best practice. Even though the user would most likely benefit from the forced upgrade in the case of jquery, it simply isn't necessary to run bootstrap properly. That, and I do not want to unintentionally break other packages that may only support a lesser version of jquery. Thanks again for posting the issue!
