Yii2 - Change jQuery Version

Question

I want to change the jQuery version of yii2. I've installed yii2 through composer. I've read a similar question here: Change JqueryAsset's jQuery version on certain page

But the problem I'm facing is where should I place this code? Should I place it on the view page? But I want to change the jquery version for all the pages. Is this code compatible for yii2?

You can easily customize jquery asset bundle by configuring assetManager in the application components configuration (usually config/web.php), for example if you want to use a jquery file in web/js folder :

        'assetManager' => [
            'bundles' => [
                'yii\web\JqueryAsset' => [
                    'sourcePath' => null,
                    'basePath' => '@webroot',
                    'baseUrl' => '@web',
                    'js' => [
                        'js/jquery.js',
                    ]
                ],
            ],
        ],
