mciparelli / noUiSlider

noUiSlider is a lightweight jQuery range slider plugin. It offers a wide selection of options and settings, but it is (much!) less bloated than the jQueryUI slider. noUiSlider supports touch on a wide range of devices, including those running iOS, Android, Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8.

noUiSlider

noUiSlider is lightweight plugin, developed to be a jQuery UI alternative. It features cross-browser support, a just-another-input-type style of getting and setting values, a wide range of options and support for a bunch of touch devices. It works wonders on Android phones, iPhone & iPad, Windows phone and touch-screen laptops and tablets. It works excellent on the desktop too; All modern browsers and IE7+ are supported. The end result? A lean, extendible and bloat-less plugin that'll just do its job. To add even more flexibility, noUiSlider is compatible with both jQuery and Zepto.js. Oh, and the licensing terms are simple: just do what you want.

Documentation

An extensive documentation, including examples, options and configuration details, is available here: noUiSlider documentation.
