Bootstrap: jQuery 3.0 in Bootstrap v4

[accidentalmeme]

As the title says, can you add support for jQuery 3.

[cvrebert]

Yes, though we probably won't start work on it until jQuery 3 ships a stable release; jQuery 3 is currently still in beta.

The jQuery 3.0 release candidate should be coming out next week, feel free to mention me in other tickets. Are the tests on master the ones I should be checking against?

[cvrebert]

@dmethvin No, the v4-dev branch.

[accidentalmeme]

Will you start implementing the jQuery 3.0 rc-1 now that it is out. They say the api should stay the same. Thank you.

[dmethvin]

The v4 branch passes all tests with jQuery 3.0.0-rc1 once #19906 is landed. Even that was a unit test issue, nothing failed in the actual v4 code. If you find otherwise and it's due to Bootstrap (not your own code) open a ticket here and ping me in. Note that jQuery Migrate will find many of the issues so be sure to use it in your code.

jQuery 3.0 final has been released.

You can temporarily override the version check with this: <script>$.fn.jquery = "2.2.4";</script>

The stable version of jQuery 3 was launched, I believe that as the Bootstrap 4 is still in development, it would be interesting to use this latest version.
I did a test only replacing the linked version, and it worked normally.
I think I would have no problem in updating the version.

jQuery v3.0 is out, will you join this new version with Bootstrap v46

It seems to be more compatible then any other version! I did switch with v3.0 on some web site and I didn't have compatibility problem!

[cvrebert]

X-Ref: #16834

[cvrebert]

We have some unit test problems to fix before we can comfortably claim jQuery 3 compatibility: #20182

[cvrebert]

Fixed by #20190, #20191, #20198.

[TheBuzzer67]

For when the v4.0.0.0-alpha.3??

Is there a planning for exit?

[indolering]

@TheBuzzer67 You can set your package.json/bower.json file to point to the raw v4 repo or monkey patch whatever development version you are using. The version check is in the first few lines of the minified file.

[TheBuzzer67]

Want to know when alpha.3 version will be available on the web site?

And I'd like to follow the evolution of the development, is there a site where we can follow?

[calvinf]

The v4.0.0-alpha.3 milestone has 24 open issues right now. That's the closest thing I've found for tracking status:

https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/milestones/v4.0.0-alpha.3

[cvrebert]

Want to know when alpha.3 version will be available on the web site?

Please refer to #19403.
But given the number of "duplicate, already fixed in v4-dev" issues I'm seeing, we should try to ship it soonish.

And I'd like to follow the evolution of the development, is there a site where we can follow?

You can follow https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/tree/v4-dev to see what we're committing.
You can follow http://blog.getbootstrap.com for release announcements.
There's currently no official "this week in Bootstrap 4"-type summaries, if that's what you mean.
