I just wanted to chime in on a few observations made. If you choose a library on a small set of criteria ( does it do what I need?, is it easy to do what I need?, how much do I need to learn to use it? and what sort of resources are available to help me learn it? ) what you find is that jquery is the only one that has a good answer for each.
I think one of the strongest traits the community here has is that they like to help eachother. The fact that answering a question or mocking up a demonstration for someone in jquery is 10x easier than another library encourages people to write code to answer new users questions. I don't speak for anyone but myself, but that alone was invaluable to me. Seeing a few 'one-liners' and going from there to writing plugins of my own felt so natural and easy. That and the dev team - especially John and his maturity and respect towards other framework developers.. I was sold. I won't go back to prototype. Ever. Prototype is dead, long live Jquery. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/jQuery-Design-Decisions--Comparison-to-MooTools--tf3218550.html#a8955191 Sent from the JQuery mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list [email protected] http://jquery.com/discuss/
