'''jQuery UI''' is a collection of [[GUI widget]]s, animated visual effects, and [[Theme (computing)|themes]] implemented with [[jQuery]] (a [[JavaScript]] [[Library (computing)|library]]), [[Cascading Style Sheets]], and [[HTML]].<ref>{{cite book |last=Sarrion |first=Eric |date=2012 |title=jQuery UI |location=Sebastopol |publisher=O'Reilly Media |pages=1–4 |isbn=9781449316990 |oclc=768796881}}</ref> Using the [[Shodan_(website)|Shodan]] search engine query term '''cpe:"cpe:/a:jquery/jquery_ui"''' we can determine that jQuery UI is used on approximately 800k web sites. [[Pinterest]], [[PayPal]], [[IMDb]], [[HuffPost]], and [[Netflix]] are utilizing the library.

Both jQuery and jQuery UI are [[free and open-source software]] distributed by the jQuery Foundation under the [[MIT License]]; jQuery UI was first published in September 2007.<ref name="license"/><ref name=release>{{cite web |url=http://blog.jquery.com/2007/09/17/jquery-ui-interactions-and-widgets |title=jQuery UI: Interactions and plug-ins |author=John Resig |date=17 September 2007 |access-date=12 August 2012 |publisher=jQuery blog}}</ref>

As of October 7, 2021 jQuery UI is in maintenance mode, with no new features being planned.<ref>{{cite web| url =  https://blog.jquery.com/2021/10/07/jquery-maintainers-update-and-transition-jquery-ui-as-part-of-overall-modernization-efforts/| title = 
jQuery maintainers update and transition jQuery UI as part of overall modernization efforts|access-date=6 December 2022|publisher=jQuery Blog}}</ref>

==Features==
As of the 1.11.4 release, <ref>{{cite web| url = http://jqueryui.com/demos/| title = jQuery UI Demos |access-date=5 February 2016|publisher=jQuery UI}}</ref> interactions such as draggable/droppable and sortable are supported. jQueryUI comes with fully themeable widgets using a consolidated, coordinated theme mechanism,<ref>{{cite web| url =  http://jqueryui.com/themeroller| title = jQuery UI: ThemeRoller|access-date=5 February 2016|publisher=jQuery UI}}</ref> such as Autocomplete, Datepicker, ProgressBar, Sliders, and more.
Effects include color animations, class toggling. 

== Example ==
<syntaxhighlight lang="javascript">
// Make the element with id "draggable" draggable
$(function () {
	$("#draggable").draggable();
});
</syntaxhighlight>

<syntaxhighlight lang="html">
<div id="draggable">
	<p>Drag me around</p>
</div>
</syntaxhighlight>

This makes the div with the ID "draggable" draggable by the user's mouse.
