MooTools is anything but a failure. It’s just no longer as relevant. JavaScript itself has matured and frameworks matter less now. I still use MooTools because a) it works quite well and b) I enjoy it’s conventions. Also, there are a lot of spectacularly useful and well-written things written in it. While I don’t post a lot about JavaScript and I don’t update my repositories on Clientcide with much fanfare, I’m still pushing changes to Behavior and MooTools Bootstrap almost daily. We’ve built a remarkably robust UI Framework at Thanx on top of it. Here, have a screenshot or two: http://cl.ly/image/1k472329081v http://cl.ly/image/3E1W133S420l http://cl.ly/image/0j172t0l1e0p If I had time (or it was a priority at work) I’d release it all and at some point I might. But my point is that while MooTools isn’t pushing the edge of any envelopes it’s a remarkably useful set of tools and is robust, well tested, and stable. -a -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MooTools Users" group.
