Simple removal of asserts requirement does not solve the issue.
Here you mention packages.json, which should replace them, but I can not see it.
Our current packages.json does not seem to me as full-scale replacement.

[schmunk42]

The current packages.json contains only devDependencies, so there wouldn't been any packages installed needed during runtime.
I would not recommend to move the removed assets to packages.json here, but in a new repo, like yii2-widgets or yii2-grid...

[schmunk42]

I just tried to play around with the recent code of 2.1, but it still contains bower-asset requirements. I think we should drop them and add the functionality later, most likely in another repo.

That is because JS was separated but wasn't yet moved out to separate repositories.

[schmunk42]

Is is basically moving these files https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/tree/2.1/framework/jquery into https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2-jquery or more?

[samdark]

It is along with tests.

Tests for 7.1 in this PR have passed btw: https://travis-ci.org/yiisoft/yii2/jobs/276048104 - I actually wonder that they did, but anyway.

So the tests need to be moved also - for sure. How could we proceed with this?

[samdark]

If you want to handle it, I can grant you write permissions to https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2-jquery. Then:

1. Got everything into yii2-jquery.
2. Make sure travis/tests/docs/composer are OK.
3. Clean up core framewrok.

@samdark, haveb't we agreed to use 'git subsplit' to transfer code from the core to extensions?
There is no sense of performing code separation until 2.0.14 release and 2.0.x freeze, since there will be need of merging code from 2.0.x to the 2.1.x.
Stay down - it is not the time yet.

[samdark]

We did. Right.

[schmunk42]

Is it the time now? 😄

2.0.14 is released and "and 2.0.x will only receive bug fixes from now on. ".

It is in the progress.
If you want to help, you may start from fixing NodeJs tests at yii2-jquery:
https://travis-ci.org/yiisoft/yii2-jquery/jobs/346919825

[schmunk42]

Most tests are passing, see https://travis-ci.org/yiisoft/yii2-jquery/jobs/346996359 - I guess pjax can be removed and captcha also (move test to https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2-captcha)
