Description

Summary

We want to reduce number of dependencies and reduce Web Console package size. jQuery is a non-essential component used by grid and perhaps as event bus.

The goal

Remove jQuery dependency completely. Replace Grid use of jQuery with pure JavaScript. Use something else from React arsenal for messaging.

Research direction

Start by locating the Web Console Grid implementation and all jQuery usages, then trace how jQuery is used for messaging or event-bus behavior. Done means the Grid uses pure JavaScript, messaging uses an appropriate React-based mechanism, and the jQuery dependency is removed completely.
