Web App Developer built-in jQuery question

[Phares_Andrew]

I'm trying to implement jQuery for my app as the built-in version in Web AppBuilder is deprecated for the functions I need. The only solution which worked for me from How to load jQuery plugins on Web AppBuilder?  and Web App Builder Developer Edition, is jQuery a supported language? was to link it in my index.html file. When I open an infographic, and it loads its source, my new version of jQuery is overwritten, and it attempts to access this link https://js.arcgis.com/3.29/dojo/jquery.js. It if helps, I received this error after making changes to the source linked to jQueryUrl in jimu.js\loaderplugins\jquery-loader.js. (I understand if this question is outside the scope of these forums)

What's the functionality you're trying to get with JQuery?

I was trying to implement the slider given in: https://jqueryui.com/slider/#range. I solved this by going a different route to avoid using jQuery by using noUISlider: https://refreshless.com/nouislider/
