[OT] The 'Jakarta' of Javascript?
When it comes to server-side Java components and libraries, I generally
find most of what I need at Jakarta or elsewhere at Apache; it's certainly
one of the first places I always look. Is there a 'Jakarta' of client-side
components?
Lately I've been keeping my eye out for good Javascript resources, from
AJAX frameworks to calendar controls like the one Wendy recently posted a
link to [1] to cool visual effects [2] and dynamic UI components [3].
What are your favourite sources for this kind of thing? Do you have any
particularly neat examples nestled amongst your bookmarks?

That looks very promising. I'll keep an eye on this one for sure.

Some folks have been working on JSAN [1], a CPAN for JS. Most people
that are serious on JS aim in porting their stuff accordingly.
Personally, i hope it will go even further; just imagine declaring JS
libraries as dependencies for your WAR in Maven.

I agree with your general impression of sites like that... and, DD has
it's share of "gee whiz, that's neat but oh so annoying!" content too...
but when you find the good stuff it really tends to be *very* good.

I'll have to have a dig around on there. I find sites like that tend to
have an overwhelming amount of trivial or just plain annoying scripts (I
*hate* sites that have a little bumble bee chasing my mouse around the page
;-) rather than full-on UI components, but having done very little with
Javascript in the past I haven't developed good filtering skills for
digging out the good stuff yet.
Thanks for the link,

I don't recall ever actually using anything from that site, I tend to
write all my own client-side stuff, but I've very definitely gotten
inspiration from some of the stuff there. :)
