Microsoft Adding jQuery To Visual Studio

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the well-isn't-that-special dept.

Tim Anderson writes "Microsoft's Scott Guthrie, Corporate VP of the .NET developer division, announced that the open source jQuery Javascript library will be integrated into Visual Studio, the main Windows development tool. Further, Microsoft will treat jQuery as a supported product within technical support contracts, and will use jQuery to build new controls for ASP.NET, its web platform."

    I think read once is optimistic.

    Ah, but did you hear that Microsoft was adding jQuery to Visual Studio? Maybe I should submit it as a Slashdot story.

    (Seriously, I wonder what the record is for the most times the same story has made it onto Slashdot? Two? Three? A dozen?)
