jQuery UI 1.9 RC

Posted on by

The first release candidate for jQuery UI 1.9 is out! Since the beta release, we’ve upgraded to jQuery Core 1.8.0 and jQuery Color 2.0.0 and landed quite a few more bug fixes. We’re getting close to a final release, but we’re still pretty busy working on our new infrastructure. We’re working on a new web site, new download builder, and new documentation site to accompany the new release.

For a list of the major changes between 1.8 and 1.9, check out the beta release announcement. Keep in mind that 1.9 brings a lot of API changes, but we’re committed to having 1.9 fully support the 1.8 APIs even though many of them are deprecated. You can read more about the API redesigns in a previous blog post. For a full list of changes, see the list of 1.9.0 fixed tickets. We’re working on a full changelog and upgrade guide for the final release.
