    Hi,

    Until now I built modx modules using Evo manager styles and html code (similar to Doc manager, etc)
    For my next module I plan to use jQuery UI and maybe build a jQuery theme that works with the current MODX Evo Manager.
    Has anyone tried this before and can offer some opinions? Any other ideas on easily building modules?

    My plan is to use jQuery UI + xPDO to build the my next Evo module.

    Thank you

      I’m using jQuery UI in the manager for custom modules. I’ve yet to create a matching theme but that would be a great addition!

        Since the module is run in a frame, it can have anything any ordinary HTML page could have. In fact, it should have a doctype and HTML head.
