The jQuery-Mobile-Progress-Bar-with-Percentage is a plugin for jQuery Mobile which creates, manages, starts, stops, resumes and explicitly sets the value of a progress bar or creates an indefinite loading bar. In addition it provides the options to set the progress bar's outer theme and inner filling theme on the basis of the jQuery Mobile standard themes, to show a percentage completion counter, to set whether the progress bar has normal or mini size, to define the interval which specifies the filling frequency rate, to configure the max value of the outer bar and set the initial value of the filling inner bar. The provided SASS file allows the creation of a custom theme.

Grunt is used as the build tool which requires Node.js version >= 0.8.0. Please refer to nodejs.org for details regarding installing Node.js. Please refer to Grunt's getting started guide for details regarding installing Grunt.
To install the dependencies of the project, navigate to the project's root folder and run the following command:
$ npm install

$ grunt
The produced JavaScript and CSS files will be in the dist directory.
Include the following CSS and JS files inside the head section of your HTML file. Please note that you can use local copies of the jQuery and jQuery Mobile CSS and JS files instead of the CDN hosted ones. The X.X.X represents the digits which define a specific version (ex: 1.8.2).
