I have to download a Jquery file, but I'm not sure of the right file to download or how to download
Jason Peay
16,515 PointsI found out I had to download Jquery, from the teacher's notes "Ways to Include jQuery in a Project" ......"Let's go to jQuery.com and take a look at downloading it because since we don't have it in our project we want to download it and include it in our project," at 1:08 of the video transcript.
But, I found out it's not actually something I have to download. I have to copy and paste the code in the html doc. So, there was some confusion, there, sorry. Anyway, there's also more than one version. the latest is jquery UI 1.11.4. Which isn't the version used in the video. So, should I use that version?

47,353 PointsHi Jason, on the jquery website's download page, you will find the compressed and uncompressed copies of the file: https://jquery.com/download. The uncompressed file is best used in development and the compressed file in production. Note, you may want to use a cdn instead of downloading the file. I hope this helps
