I'm building a web app that should be used on desktop mobile and tablet too. I need the extra widgets of jQuery UI: date picker, resizable , sortable, draggable, etc. These are missing from jQuery mobile, so I cannot use jQuery mobile.

The jQuery UI themes were not designed for tablet / mobile. Buttons, texts, list items and all other widgets are too small to be controlled with a touch screen. Also the stock icons are too small. I know that there is the jquery ui theme roller, but it would take forever to construct some alternative themes that can be used for tablet / mobile. (I would have to create my own stock icons too, with a different size.) I do not want to spend my time creating a theme, because my primary goal is to create a web app that can be used from a mobile or a tablet. Is there a website where I can download mobile optimized jquery ui themes? With much bigger buttons, texts etc. but with all the jquery ui widgets.

jQuery Mobile

You may want look into Twitter Bootstrap. It is no jQuery-UI but it is powered by jQuery and can with in conjunction with jQuery-UI so it meets some of your needs.

Addendum

DatePicker

OR you can use jQuery-UI's date picker

  • Bootstrap looks good for me. I'll have to check if I can create/destroy these elements from Javascript though. Thanks. I don't see any date picker component. No draggable, droppable, and many others are missing. :-( – nagylzs Dec 03 '13 at 16:38
