Hey, thanks for your feedback. You're reading introductory blurb v0.1, so there's definitely room for improvement.
To answer your questions:
- The core library (Ox.js) is somewhat similar to underscore, while the UI module (Ox.UI) is more like YUI or Ext JS. Unlike backbone, OxJS comes with actual widgets, and it doesn't suggest a strict MVC model. Even though you may end up writing code that follows the MVC paradigm rather closely.
- So far, the only major project using OxJS is pan.do/ra (https://pan.do/ra https://pan.do/ra). But then, OxJS has just been made public.
- In case the tools you're currently using give you the right abstractions and objects to build big applications (like pan.do/ra), then my suggestion would be to stick with them. Maybe try out OxJS for a small side project.
- Ox.UI wraps jQuery, but other than that, there are no dependencies. You can bring any third-party templating library, but the idea is that you won't need one. The UI widgets are your "views", and that's it.
