Javascript-library Wiki Pages

A JavaScript library is a library that offers functionality for JavaScript application development.

Some of the major ones:

Comparison of popular libraries

Within the different JavaScript libraries there are differing philosophies of library models. Prototype offers the lowest impact of the three libraries, seeking to extend JavaScript with extended Ruby-like functionality rather than develop a new development model for working with Javascript. Prototype is supported and run by 37 Signals – a web application development company.

On the other extreme, dojo is a very self contained development model. It abstracts a lot of regular javascript development to its own system and language, offering an abstracted view that leaves browser specific coding to the framework. Dojo has support from IBM and Sun, who have made code contributions to the project.

Yahoo! UI library is somewhere in the middle. It offers a variety of widgets and has focus on UI widgets rather than general programming unlike Prototype. You can deploy a Yahoo UI Library widget without buying into the whole framework, and Yahoo uses their own library internally, making them sensitive to bandwidth and overhead considerations as they receive millions of users.
