Hello everyone new to the list and new to catalyst in general. I am
still trying to figure out best ways of using it in our
environment with
least amount of pain. To do that I am trying to plan it out before I
start really getting my hands dirty.
My question is what is everyone's preferred Ajax framework? There are
tons of them out there but which one in your experience is the
best. A
little short reason would also be appreciated to see if my priorities
line up with your reasons.
my preference is dojo for sheer raw power and flexibility and the
fact their architecture and forward dev plan is sane, but it -does-
require an investment to get the most out of it.
if you don't have time to learn it, YUI-ext is nice but a bit java-
ish for my tastes, mochikit and JQuery are both very good
lightweight libraries.
really? I found dojo to be very intuitive when it comes to doing
things. Steeper learning curve than other frameworks? I would say its
about the same give or take. I mean common lets not kid our selves
how hard is it associate <div dojoType="someWidget"></div> to a
widget call? dojo.io.bind is brain dead easy when it comes to Ajax
calls. Also taking into consideration dojo encompasses so many things
that you have one central javascript framework to do it all. No need
to flip flop between different APIs to get things done. Remind you of
anything? ahem Catalyst?
