Sandbox
Is there a sandbox with sample code, widget drag&drop etc. ?

As an unrelated note, I am a bit confused as to why we now have a) jquery ui buttons b) agora c) oo js ui buttons. They all look different. I even don't dare to ask what I should use as I can imagine everyone will tell me a different story. -- Rillke (talk) 08:35, 5 July 2014 (UTC)


 * There's a suite of demos in the repository, yes.
 * You should not use jQuery UI; that has been deprecated for years.
 * Agora styling (or whatever the styling of the day is) will eventually get applied to OOUI buttons, which you should use.

 * Cool.
 * Oh, I never saw it was deprecated. How portable is OOjs UI compared to jQuery UI? For example, I just have to add a snippet for embedding jQuery UI from Google to my site and bam! the code runs. Are there similar options for OOjs UI? -- Rillke (talk) 16:44, 8 July 2014 (UTC)


 * We don't currently provide code CDN in the way that Google does for jQuery (and frankly I'd imagine that security hole isn't really something we'd generally want to encourage), but may have some ideas about options for OOjs, OOUI and other frameworks we publish.

Menu
With OOjs UI, I'd like to create a menu (and a menu bar). Something like what you see when you open a web browser. Not a select box, which InlineMenuWidget is. How? --Gryllida 23:26, 1 September 2014 (UTC)

Found MenuToolGroup, but demo doesn't have it, and I wouldn't like to invent a working example by hand... --Gryllida 23:55, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
