[jira] [Created] (TAP5-2732) Change default JavaScript infrastructure provider from Prototype to jQuery

Volker Lamp created TAP5-2732:
---------------------------------

             Summary: Change default JavaScript infrastructure provider from Prototype to jQuery
                 Key: TAP5-2732
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-2732
             Project: Tapestry 5
          Issue Type: Technical Debt
          Components: tapestry-core
            Reporter: Volker Lamp


The Prototype JavaScript Framework has been the default JavaScript infrastructure provider (see {{SymbolConstants.JAVASCRIPT_INFRASTRUCTURE_PROVIDER}}) since Tapestry 5.4.

This issue is about changing the default to jQuery, mainly for the following reasons:
# to reflect today's reality that jQuery is by far more popular than Prototype, and hence Tapestry users are more likely to use jQuery rather than Prototype;
# to align the default js provider with the default css framework (Bootstrap), which requires jQuery.
