We want to hear from you - Here is a quick little poll about our latest releases

[ghiscoding]

Just a simple poll to see what changes excited you the most from our last 3 releases. ❤️

Also if you are happy with our new version 5.0 and wish to showcase your project, feel free to do so in the discussion below by either posting a link to your project (preferably public) and/or add print screen below. 🚀

Thank you

Yay less dependencies boo more appendices ;)

Also always like cool themes but this project is already large and stable don't break it to much haha

[ghiscoding]

I see you're in the camp of "if it ain't broken, don't fix it"... to which I would reply, "you can't make an omelet without breaking eggs"... you can always go back to v2.x with jQuery/jQueryUI if you call that stable ;).

Also the new Alpine Theme is totally optional, you can still use the classic theme, just use what you want or create your own (nearly everything is optional in this lib and nearly all pieces are now extendable).

It would be great to get rid of typescript and if possible removes the requirement for jQueryUI - or at least makes it optional.

if possible removes the requirement for jQueryUI - or at least makes it optional.

You probably want to re-read the last 2 releases (Migrations Wikis), because jQueryUI is no longer required since v3 and we dropped jQuery in v4 (that's what the question form above is all about). You can still use jQuery/jQueryUI but it's now totally optional. The only new requirement is SortableJS which was introduced to replace jQueryUI.

SlickGrid/package.json

Lines 67 to 69 in 36173fc

	"dependencies": {
	"sortablejs": "^1.15.1"
	},

most people would totally disagree with you, including myself, since most users would prefer to use projects that are written in TypeScript because it brings type safety and peace of mind that this safety is enforced. It also brings Type Definitions (.d.ts) that many users are interested in since it brings intellisense in code editors for all available options (there are many in SlickGrid)... It took a lot of effort to migrate to TypeScript and we have no intention to rolling it back to plain JS, note however that the 3 new builds will always be transpiled to plain JS so the build size differences are minimal. The ES6/ESM builds would also not be possible without TypeScript, at least not with a lot more effort.

I would suggest that you read all past Migrations to understand all changes applied, and as an alternative, you could also stick with v4 if you really want to stay with pure JS without TypeScript (though less recommended since we won't provide support for older versions)

" I just happen to support all these SlickGrid projects." Your efforts are certainly appreciated - it is a lot to manage.

Out of my league, but I'm also not a react user and have no idea about WebPack. Looks like you're using @ghiscoding 's slickgrid-react, as you should be. That's the main thing.

[baj1210]

I just touched JS for the first time 4 months ago so everything is out of my league atm.

Sorry guys but this discussion is starting to be way off the principal subject of the Poll Survey above. If there's other topics to discuss then I think it should be in a separate discussion. Thank you
