There are some interesting JavaScript frameworks on the internet. Some have been designed to support AJAX out of band requests and others appear to simply want to add features or extend the JavaScript object model. Here are the frameworks I found today:

  • Prototype - attempts to ease the creation of dynamic web applications.
  • Rico - This is a framework for "rich internet applications". The features of the framework are:
    • AJAX support
    • Drag & Drop wrapper - the only advantage I see here is cross browser support.
    • Cinematic - it supports effecs such as fading and colour transitions. There is a Nifty Corners library here which allows you to add rounded corners to boxes
    • Behavior - this implements an IE style behavior. In other words, you can attach your JavaScript "behavior" to an element.
  • MochKit - This was built because the author didn't like Prototype.
  • Google AJAXXSLT - This is an implementation of XSLT in JavaScript.
