I understand the desire to rally behind your favorite framework and recognize 
it for the greatness it is, but  to say its the best, seems a little bellicose 
to me. What makes one better than the other?  I can concede that some might 
better than others, or at least better thought through, but truly, how can one 
stand out from what seems like could be a hundred?  I have not worked with 
extJS, but I have worked extensively with both Mootools and Jquery.  

When I was introduced to Jquery I thought it the cats meow. Then at another job 
 they were using Mootols.  At first I found it overly complex (compared to 
Jquery), but as I got into it I realized it was being something Jquery was not, 
a classical framework.  Once my head was wrapped around that thought I quickly 
fell in love with mootools. 

This new found love affair was also an epiphany.  I then wanted to see what 
other frameworks had to offer, and learn their approaches.  Since then I have 
gone forward to look at Prototype, Uize, YUI, Rico, Sproutcore...there are so 
many more.  They all seem to have something to offer,  demonstrating unique 
approaches to javascript.

As an aside, I think the number of frameworks for JS shows its unique dynamic 
nature.  Do other languages have this many frameworks?  

I just wonder what makes extJS the best?
