widgetize-canvas-lms-user-content

A drop-in replacement for the functionality in Canvas LMS that makes jqueryUI widgets out of your user content

**I don't actually recommend people continue to use this going forward. I am just providing
it so all of your legacy content that might have used the magic functionality in CanvasLMS
that makes jqueryUI widgets out of your user content continues to work exactly as it did before,
even if/when that functionality is removed from core canvas.**

Installation

To turn this on for users of your institution, you just need to add the following snippet
to your Custom JavaScript file file that you upload to the Canvas LMS Theme editor. It will
grab the actual code in this repo that does all the work from a global cdn and run it on
every page in your account. See the index.js file in this directory for what it actually does.

``javascript
// Add this to your Custom JavaScript file in the CanvasLMS theme editor
!function(s,d,url,e,p){
e=d.createElement(s),p=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];e.async=1;e.src=url;p.parentNode.insertBefore(e,p)
}('script', document, 'https://unpkg.com/widgetize-canvas-lms-user-content');
`
