## What it is
ion.RangeSlider is a jQuery plugin that turns a native input element into a flexible, skinnable range slider with single or double handles. It supports touch devices, keyboard navigation, value grids, prefixes/postfixes, and works with jQuery 1.8 through 4.x.

## Use cases
- add a price range filter slider to a web form
- let users pick a numeric range with two handles
- replace a text input with a touch-friendly slider
- build a filter UI with min/max value selection
- display formatted values like $100 or 10 000 000 on a slider
- add a slider with snapping grid values to a dashboard

## When to choose
- you already use jQuery and need a range picker
- you need touch and keyboard support out of the box
- you want customizable skins and value formatting
- you need the slider to read/write a native form input

## When to avoid
- your project is jQuery-free and you prefer a vanilla JS or React component
- you need a multi-handle (3+) slider
- you need vertical-only sliders or advanced drag interactions beyond ranges

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: stable
- function: ui-components, form-handling
- domain: web-development, frontend
- platform: browser, cross-platform
- tags: jquery-plugin, range-slider, touch-support, skins
