<3 jQuery
I’ve always been a fan of MooTools, ever since I needed the Accordion functionality on a site I built back in January of 2008. Since then, I have stubbornly stuck to that choice, using it for all websites that could use some cool Javascript functionality (especially Fx.Slide). While redesigning AlanBeam.net, I decided to give jQuery a try. I mean, if it’s good enough for Google and Mozilla, there’s gotta be something to it, right?
I gotta say, I waited too long to make the change. MooTools is nice, don’t get me wrong, but jQuery makes everything I want to do in Javascript incredibly simple. I love it. With the addition of jQuery Tools, I can add more than just fun effects, but user-friendly navigation, helpful tooltips, simple Ajax form submission, and plenty more, I am sure. I’ve found my new, reliable Javascript framework and I’m not looking back.
Which Javascript framework do you use?
