#Bootstrap without jQuery

** Note: This is no longer maintained. For a more up-to-date version please take a look at bootstrap.native

Introduction

A lightweight script to replace jQuery for simple interactions when using Twitter Bootstrap.

Bootstrap requires jQuery for some components such as dropdowns, alerts and the little "hamburger" icon that triggers a collapsible menu. While jQuery is an excellent cross-browser framework, it can be overkill if it's only used for displaying and hiding things. Of course, if a project already uses jQuery then there's no problem, but if not here's a script to replace jQuery and some of the Bootstrap plugin scripts. Using this should reduce download size and speed up loading time for your users.

Coverage

Bootstrap 2 and 3

  • Collapsible elements (e.g. "hamburger" menu icon)
  • Dismissable alert boxes
  • Dropdown menus

Demo

You can see the script in action in these simple demos:

Notes

  • Alert close is intermittent in Android 2.3
  • In Chrome, onblur doesn't fire when attached to button elements. This affects the dropdown menus so please use a elements instead for these.

I'd really appreciate a quick comment on whether it works in your browser or not.
