Hi Rey > 1) Which library (or libraries) did you choose?
Mootools mainly, right now Im checking out all others, but have no intention to switch, just extend mootools so far as I can.... > 2) What led you to use the library (libraries)? I started with mootools since the days of Moo.FX + Prototype... Most of my work is joomla based, and since moo is included there by default... I got the best of both worlds there!!! Besides this, I started my developer carreer using C++, and so, the object oriented outlook is great for me... > 3) How has it improved your work? Very, Very much... I still cant compare to others besides the opinions of other users respecting other frameworks. The way I can unobtrusively modify/alter/extend xhtml is priceless... > 4) At which point in the site design & development process do you > consider using a JS library? Right after all xhtml/css coding is done (Im lying... from the start!!!!) > 5) Which features of the specific libraries you selected to do you use > regularly? DOM altering, animation, XHR > 6) Do you develop to strict HTML/XHTML standards? If so, has your > choice of library helped you to continue being standards-compliant or > has it hindered your work? If you could elaborate on pros and cons, > that would be a huge help. I try to do so. This mainly relates to the quality of the code generated by the plugins. With the mootools core, I have no complaints. There are some plugins around that do not do the best work, but can easily be extended. > 7) Do you develop with progressive enhancement in mind? If so, do the > libraries you use help you with that? I dont get the grasp of this question... sorry (english is not my mother tongue) > 8) In terms of CSS, do you find the libraries meeting your needs or > are there limitations that you're finding? 100% [just keep it simple / keep it working!!!] > 9) How do you leverage the JS libs to affect your use of CSS in your > web applications? I try to follow the most I can the MVC pattern, letting the CSS control the whole look'n'feel and using mootools to do the rest.... > 10) How quickly were you able to leverage the JS libs to help you in > your development? With mootools, taking into account the current documentation, its source code (which unfortunately is not fully commented), the samples and other peoples code...faaaaaaaaaaaaast!!!
