This PR moves the jQuery and DataTables.js dependencies from CDN URLs to local files in the assets directory, improving site reliability and reducing external dependencies.

Changes Made

Files Added

  • docs/assets/jquery-3.5.1.min.js - Local copy of jQuery 3.5.1
  • docs/assets/jquery.dataTables.min.js - Local copy of DataTables 1.13.7 JS
  • docs/assets/css/jquery.dataTables.min.css - Local copy of DataTables 1.13.7 CSS
  • docs/assets/README.md - Documentation for local dependencies

Files Modified

  • docs/_includes/head/custom.html - Updated to reference local files instead of CDN
  • sandbox/sorted-table/resultsTable-demo.html - Updated for consistency

Before

<!-- CDN references -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.13.7/css/jquery.dataTables.css">
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf8" src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.5.1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf8" src="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.13.7/js/jquery.dataTables.js"></script>

After

<!-- Local references -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="assets/css/jquery.dataTables.min.css">
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf8" src="assets/jquery-3.5.1.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf8" src="assets/jquery.dataTables.min.js"></script>

Benefits

  • ✅ Eliminates dependency on external CDNs
  • ✅ Improves site loading reliability
  • ✅ Follows existing pattern (htmx.min.js is already local)
  • ✅ Maintains exact same versions for compatibility
  • ✅ No functional changes to table sorting behavior

Note

The current files contain placeholder content. For production deployment, replace these with the actual libraries downloaded from:

Fixes #96.
