Support MooTools on Twitter via Twibbon!

By  on  

Just a secret between you and I: MooTools is the best JavaScript framework out there. I mean it. It's compact, reliable, flexible, and as free as the air (not Adobe) you and I breathe (except persons on oxygen tanks -- I assume those cost something). If you feel the way I do, I urge you to show your support of MooTools on Twitter by joining my MooTools FTW Twibbon group.

    It’s just another Javascript framework. Nothing special.

  2. Darkimmortal.comment = false;

  3. I should explain. I don’t believe in “just another javascript framework.” The number of man hours that go into any javascript framework numbers in the tens of thousands. The amount of effort is countless. The number of persons vested in the framework, not only the development of the framework but its users, is countless. Right now, there are 89 persons in the MooTools IRC room, 431 in jQuery’s, and 101 in Dojo’s. Another 66 in Prototype’s.

    “Just another” trivializes the effort of those involved. I guess your comment is just another comment?

    Okay fair enough – if I bothered to stop being such a jQuery-fag (even though I hate jQuery :/ ) then MooTools would definitely be my second choice :P

    Also your email comment subscription things show the HTML tags tags in text/plain ;)

  5. Consider me ‘supported’!

  6. Mootools FTW as you don’t have to include a gazillion ‘plugins’ just pick what you want from ‘more’
