Please, never use the Dojo Toolkit. I was forced to use it on a project and working with it was reinventing the wheel while pulling out hair. It was overly complicated for something that needed to be straightforward and simple.
- moonlighter 14y agoAmen to that. The doc for it sucks too (not that there's enough there, but most doc for it found by google et al is obsolete/deprecated. And last but not least... the plugin ecosystem for dojo sucks even worse, and whatever widgets/dijits actually exist for it, usually look like @ss. The only one who seems to be committed to dojo is...IBM.
- nobleach 14y agoESRI the top worldwide provider of GIS software is also sold on Dojo and Dijits. I agree that their digits are uglier than Android Cupcake. I have had to use Dojo on several projects now and I also agree on how abysmal their docs are. They provide tiny little code snippets but aren't even clear of the context. "Ok, fine... where do I PUT this snip... isn't this a TUTORIAL???!!??" I've been much happier with the look and feel of ExtJS but its documentation is even worse.
- ergo14 14y agoOut of curiosity - what did you had to reinvent? The whole point is so that you could use existing components provided to you.
