JQuery-Mobile for Rails 3.1 Gem

2011-09-14

I’ve created a very simple gem that includes the jquery mobile files to Rails’ assets pipeline. To install, just add to your Gemfile: gem 'jquery_mobile_rails' And require the javascript/css files in your manifests: //= require jquery.mobile.min *= require jquery.mobile.min That’s it. No helpers, no methods, only the files in your application assets pipeline. For more information check the github repo.
