 * Hello
   Is it possible to use the plugin without using JQuery, with Vanilla JS?
   I have tried, but if I disable JQuery, the plugin stops working.
 * And if I’m not mistaken, I think it needs underscore js too 🙁
 * Thanks

 * While I know we’ve done what we can to remove as much jQuery dependency as we
   could, we still are failing to a certain degree because of the usage of `wp.template()`
   and we haven’t taken the steps quite yet to remove that usage for everyone.
 * I know I have some git branches that are still works in progress that you can
   see at the following two links. They’re meant to upgrade away from that templating
   process but aren’t fully tested yet. This is especially true for the autocomplete
   link as that’s a much bigger version jump.
