jQuery UI Widgets vs. HTML5

HTML5 has brought native capabilities to the browser that were previously only available through JavaScript libraries such as jQuery UI. Examples include <input type="date"> vs. datepicker, <input type="range"> vs. slider, <input type="number"> vs. spinner, and <datalist> vs. autocomplete.

The overlapping functionality leaves web developers to choose between native options and JavaScript based widgets. In this talk we'll discuss the pros and cons of each approach to help you decide which makes sense for your application.
