Mootools 1.0 has been officially released. The library is modular and can give you a lot of functionality with a small footprint. The download page also includes an option to compress all the components. With all the components and compression turned on, my download was only 36KB. Not bad for having most of the functionality of Prototype and Scriptaculous (and some of its own unique effects).
DOMAss is short for DOM Assistant, and the idea is to provide a simpler and more consistent way to script against the Document Object Model (DOM) in web browsers…
…Being modular and lightweight has also been two very strong demands I’ve had on the library, so to make sure you only use as little code as possible, as opposed to including large libraries where you, in the end, only use 10% of what’s included.
Looks easy to use and is well documented. Give DOMAss a try.
Happy birthday to the best Mac news podcast, Mac OS Ken.
Thank you!
After talking to a number of people recently and reading some blogs, I decided it’s time to show some love to the newbies. The newest tutorial at Cocoa Dev Central is simply called Learn Cocoa…
