Tipsy is currently in Flow to my knowledge so we should probably get it moved to core first... since this is not actionable I'm moving to Flow.

mediawiki.ui contains a flag/guider component is the plan that this will be an extension/evolution to tipsy or something new? we won't be able to call mediawiki.ui done without it…
Comment 4 Matthew Flaschen 2014-09-04 21:57:35 UTC
For reference, jQuery Tipsy is in core: https://git.wikimedia.org/tree/mediawiki%2Fcore.git/dc4c88b24a726367390ddb12c371933d7df448e2/resources%2Fsrc%2Fjquery.tipsy

It's a little confusing to use the same name for our own library (my understanding is the generic term is "tooltip" and Tipsy is a specific library), but apparently we're not the only people doing that (e.g. https://github.com/tilomitra/tipsy , https://github.com/dangvanthanh/tipsy.sass )

As far as I know, the implemented mediawiki.ui code does not have such a component, but OOJS-UI does.

I have started looking at the specs at https://trello.com/c/7YwpDY2y/13-flyout and https://trello.com/c/vr0Oai8G/18-tipsy .

Our initial needs (we have implementations for these, but would like to unify them) are:

1. Recommendations flyout, relatively simple.
2. GuidedTour; flexible and powerful positioning and configuration.
