Introduction to JavaScript toolkits
This is the introductory article in a series of articles covering some of the most popular JavaScript toolkits. It gives an introduction to JavaScript toolkits and what they do in general, plus a comparison of the libraries covered in later articles, highlighting their strengths and weaknesses. When the series is finished we'll have covered jQuery, YUI, MochiKit, Dojo, MooTools, Prototype, Ext and possibly some others too - keep checking back for updates, and let us know if there are any specific toolkits you'd like to see covered!

Nice article. qooxdoo (http://qooxdoo.org) would be great. It is a nice toolkit to create full blown web applications. And it's open-source, too.

As the article states, I'll add to it as I cover more toolkits. This is just to get it all started.

This article looks very much like a promotion for a specific toolkit, especially coupled with the "jQuery is my everything" poem appearing at the same time.
For shame.

As stated in the article, this is merely the initial relase - currently Hans has only covered jQuery. Every time he writes another full article covering another JavaScript library, this article will also get added to, so that eventually it will be built up into a big JS library comparison, with seperate detailed articles to support it. I believe Hans will be covering Yahoo YUI next.

Hopefully that wasn't somehow unclear?

(just a small phrasing nitpick)
When the article states the size of the packages it uses the "sales-pitch" (compressed) 16kb, 26kb (for the current ones). The size of jQuery is (currently; see post date) 55.9kb, minified. Please avoid confusion such as labeling "16kb" as "size". What I would think as size referring to is the non-optimized raw source code (with comments) which is 117kb; or at most the size of the optimized file, most certainly not the size which is handled to the browser after optimization on the server (arguibly this configuration is not necesarly at the whim of the developer; or the browser may not accept things like gziped content). The size could also be considered 0 if we include very aggressive cache control.
