Forge: MooTools Plugin Repository

By  on  

Today marks a huge day in the history of the MooTools project: the public release of the MooTools Forge. The Forge is masterful plugin repository system created by MooTools Core Developer Guillermo Rauch. The Forge currently features numerous plugins created by the Contributors and Core Developers of the MooTools team -- by this time tomorrow, the Forge will be (hopefully) filled with MooTools plugins from developers like yourself!

Without going into too much technical detail, the Forge is based on having a developer's plugins being hosted with the GitHub system. If you don't have a GitHub account, I highly recommend you create one. Once you have an account and each plugin's repository is structured and tagged properly, you may quickly add that plugin to the Forge for the world to use!

Special Thank You to Guillermo Rauch

Guillermo's efforts have paved the way for MooTools developers to quickly and easily share their MooTools plugins with the rest of the community. I'd like to to thank Guillermo for his efforts -- I know he worked extremely hard to create this awesome system.

One Last Thing...

MooTools FTW.
