besides the dialog we also use a timepicker that requires jQuery UI.

@raghunayyar @jancborchardt Do you know of any good alternatives?

[jancborchardt]

Can we simply use that part of jQuery UI? Or is the whole lib always needed?

cc @owncloud/designers do you know of any modern good timepicker library which also work on mobile?

It requires jQuery UI core (whatever that is)

the jQuery UI dialogs are completely gone by now. The only thing left are the date and the time picker.

The core issue was rescheduled to ownCloud 9.1 This leaves us plenty of time here.
Postponing here as well.

[raghunayyar]

Awesome, I will find an ng replacement for them this weekend.

[georgehrke]

Moving to 1.4, which will probably be our release to support 9.1

@jancborchardt What are the plans on the nextcloud side to drop jQuery UI?

[jancborchardt]

Let’s see where we still use it:

• LDAP settings: we can move away from the tab-based layout now that the settings are split into individual pages. cc @blizzz
• The modal for the filepicker. Maybe we can just use that part.
• The modal for accepting remote shares: Moved to the notifications area. cc @nickvergessen @schiessle
• The Calendar app here.

Anything else I forgot? I would say we should get rid of it step by step. We can use individual aspects of it if we want, but maybe it is better to use the relevant components from Bootstrap instead as we already do with tipsy/tooltip.js

The modal for accepting remote shares

It's still used as a fallback, when notifications app is not enabled.

[jancborchardt]

Instead of that as fallback, could we use the notification up top? @nickvergessen

We can talk about whether and how to change the layout. If it requires heavier changes, it's likely that it would slip to Nc 12. Anyway, the calendar repo is not the best place to track this…

@blizzz see nextcloud/server#1090 for the server issue
