jQWidgets is a software framework with widgets (graphical control elements), themes, input validation, drag & drop plug-in, data adapters, built-in WAI-ARIA accessibility, internationalization and MVVM support. It is built on the open standards and technologies HTML5, CSS, JavaScript and jQuery.[3] This library is used for developing responsive web and mobile applications.[4] Some developers consider jQWidgets one of the top alternatives to the open source jQuery UI.[5][6][7]
Some notable users of jQWidgets include Green Card Program USA, the French citizen portal Vie-publique.fr,[8] the University of Iowa[9] and the University of Maryland.[10] The framework is also used in NSB/AppStudio.[11]
jQWidgets has been integrated with a variety of other frameworks and web technologies, such as Angular 2, AngularJS, TypeScript, Apache Cordova, WordPress, Joomla, Bootstrap and Knockout.[12]
