How do I connect jQuery Datepicker to my Ruby on Rails form?

Question

I\'m trying to use the jQuery Datepicker to set a date field in my Ruby on Rails form, but I can\'t work out how to do it. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Answer 1

It may be a bit late but I use a simple gem :

Gemfile: gem 'jquery-ui-rails'

Application.js: //= require jquery-ui

Application.css *= require jquery-ui

And then: Bundle install
