The widget set in jQuery is still in the beginning stages.

If they were going to consider any other widget set I would have thought

QooxDoo would be the best candidate.

 

But the ExtJS licencing isn't too expensive.

Hi Farshad,

 

Have you thought about doing a UniGui for jQuery ?

 

This would eliminate the need for extJS licenses.

I don't believe that the jQuery provides the extensive OOP structure we have in Ext JS.

I agree that ExtJS license price is a non--issue for commercial projects.

Yes.. Pricing is ok for commercial projects.

 

But some smaller developers might like a cheaper option ?

 

From a brief read.. It would appear that 'QooxDoo' or 'Dojo' seemed to be similar in features (according to the Wikipedia matrix -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_JavaScript_frameworks )

 

It would also allow you to bundle without requiring a hookup with extjs..! Just a thought...

Qooxdoo looks interesting. I'll keep an eye on it.

 

The problem with such frameworks is that when they get enough attention they switch to commercial licenses. Same thing happened with Ext JS.

Looks good. These says there are lots of choices for client side libraries.

 

 

Since we're talking about this sort of thing, I'm wondering why no-one has mentioned DOJO, it has a pretty comprehensive widget set and is free.

 

Dojo widgets

 

Having said that, I know that its ExtJS's documentation that allows Extpascal/Unigui to do its magic so it would probably be quite difficult to wrap *any* of the Javascript libraries without this head-start.

To be realistic switching from Ext JS to anything else is something that we may consider only in a far future. In foreseeable future Ext JS is our friend. :)
