Support MooTools on Twitter via Twibbon!
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.

![fetch API]()
One of the worst kept secrets about AJAX on the web is that the underlying API for it, XMLHttpRequest, wasn't really made for what we've been using it for. We've done well to create elegant APIs around XHR but we know we can do better. Our effort to...
![Create Namespaced Classes with MooTools]()
MooTools has always gotten a bit of grief for not inherently using and standardizing namespaced-based JavaScript classes like the Dojo Toolkit does. Many developers create their classes as globals which is generally frowned up. I mostly disagree with that stance, but each to their own. In any event...
![Custom Scrollbars in WebKit]()
Before each of the browser vendors we like was providing unique CSS controls, Internet Explorer was setting the tone. One such example is IE's early implementation of CSS filters. Internet Explorer was also the first browser that allowed developers to, for better or worse, customize...
![MooTools TextOverlap Plugin]()
Developers everywhere seem to be looking for different ways to make use of JavaScript libraries. Some creations are extremely practical, others aren't. This one may be more on the "aren't" side but used correctly, my TextOverlap plugin could add another interesting design element...
It’s just another Javascript framework. Nothing special.
Darkimmortal.comment = false;
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 ;)
Consider me ‘supported’!
Mootools FTW as you don’t have to include a gazillion ‘plugins’ just pick what you want from ‘more’
