Introduction
If you are used to work with jQuery you can load the jQuery library and use it instead of using Dojo to manage the DOM, Ajax, events, etc. Of course you can also use jQuery plugins, jQuery UI, jQuery Mobile, Bootstrap, Calcite Bootstrap, ... or any other technology built on top of jQuery.
