This is how I remove jQuery from Meteor.

Make sure your code really doesn't depend on jQuery before doing this. Also adding any Meteor packages depending on jQuery won't work as expected anymore (e.g: materialize:materialize).

So, if you want to make sure jQuery is removed from Meteor no matter what, just put

Package.describe({
  summary: "Remove jQuery from meteor",
  name: "jquery",
  version: '1.999.999',
});

into packages/jquery/package.js. No need to clone. No need to add any other files. Check your .meteor/versions file for the entry: 

[email protected]

to confirm it worked.

To remove/replace jQuery with another version (2.x or 3.x). Clone jquery package from official sources into your project folder /packages.

Replace contents of jquery.js with anything.

Downloaded package will have a higher priority and will be used instead of original one. Do on your own risk.

Meteor internals (domutils) depends on JQuery, but I believe the plan is to remove that dependency at some stage:

See: https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/meteor-talk/21y9NbM9v90

Domutils seems to be able to cope without jQuery if sizzle is present (see findAllBySelector). Doing a quick scan of the code I didn't see any other uses (other than on the server side - in the less parser).
