ChillDev.JS - applications mechanism
niedziela, 17 kwiecień 2011 - 17:20:42
Even thought I'm quite busy with my business projects I still working hard on ChillDev.JS. I would like to present next huge step - applications mechanism. jQuery has it's jQuery-UI and so my beloved Prototype has it's Scripty2 (still in it's beta). But they are relatively simple libraries, that provide just UI widgets. For something more, you have to look for additional extensions. For jQuery you will probably find mbContainerPlus (looks beautifull, but it's a piece of crappy code, using it will be pain in your ass), but how about Prototype-based libraries? There is LivePipe UI, old Prototype-UI, but they still provide just simple dialog boxes widgets. Now, ChillDev.JS brings full windowing and applications stack for Prototype!…
ChillDev.JS - let me introduce

First of all - what is ChillDev.JS? Don't worry - it's not another framework. It is set of components (and various useful routines) built on top of Prototype. It is (will be?) set of classes and UI components that bases on Prototype and Scripty2. It's main purpose is to be flexible and scalable - completly objective API with well-though data dlow allows even complex projects to use it's components by composing them with own routines (see the grid example). ChillDev.JS will focus mainly on complex problems, like windowing/application mechanisms, data grid or forms, so with it you should be able to create rich web applications even for advanced purpose.…
What makes me angry - jQuery

Yes, I mean it - jQuery is a trash! For last time I was working alot on client-side interfaces for some projects in Red Sky and so I used a lot of jQuery there (not because of my own choice). This only cemented my conviction, how crappy is this library. Creating applications (I mean mechanisms more complicated then simple elements sliding) is a way through passion. I will try to describe best why I think that. If you are starting your adventure with JavaScript - dont get fooled with all that short lines which make your site shiny and blinky - you still have time to choose different, surely better.…
