I can't speak to most of these issues, but I would like to point that for myself, learning works best by taking something that exists and rewriting it into jQuery. This allows me to not have to think about the existing application, but rather focus on get it working or getting it right in jQuery.
Getting a thoughtful (not judgmental) critic and suggestions from more knowledge users is also very useful. I often get so focused on what I am trying to get working, I totally miss that there was a different simpler way to solve the problem. jQuery is relatively new, and many of the things that some of the more mature packages have are not use available in jQuery, (for the good or bad), so I applaud anyone that has time and effort and a willingness to create and offer new tools. The free market place of plugins will determine which are more useful. -Steve Dan Atkinson wrote: > There's a whole page of various plugins that can be attached to jQuery. > > http://jquery.com/plugins/ > > In my opinion, going after individuals who show their work would not only be > a childish 'me too'-ism, but it would be damaging to the reputation of > jQuery, as it would just make people think that we don't have our own ideas, > so we have to copy those of others. > > > Rey Bango-2 wrote: >> If all the animation features are in jQuery standalone, then I'm onboard >> with Dan. >> >> What would be good, though, is if a page showing this being done in >> jQuery was created.
