Favorite Javascript Libraries/Tools

5 replies
So I think most people would agree that Jquery is the leading library now and mostly has one the battle against competing libraries like Scriptaculous and Mootools, but what other libraries do you think we should be watching?

Some that I think would be worth watching myself would be backbone.js and knockout.js. Anything else you are using or watching?

        I use NodeJS with Redis as a sub/pub system. Works very well for true real time web apps.

    Forgot to mention another js function/library for real time web apps:

    Socket.IO: the cross-browser WebSocket for realtime apps.

    As the web evolves Im telling you, you can make some incredible apps.
