YUI is pretty heavy weight (the API is complicated and it's big) - at least as of about 6 months ago.
But I love DataTable and AsynchQueue, and haven't found comparable plugins for jQuery.
When I need a real editable table, DataTable is my first choice.
- SingAlong 17y agoWhere do you think it stands right now? Is it like more in the JQuery/Prototype league or the Sproutcore/GWT/Cappuccino/Pyjamas league? I haven't used YUI much. Just tabs and other basic stuff around a year back. So would like to know if it's becoming more like the other desktopUI-like pkgs. P.S: I'm learning Sproutcore right now.
- kls 17y agoDojo's grid is a very nice grid as well. AsyncQueue is a nice api for command chaining. Dojo has dojo.connect which can be used to accomplish the same pattern with a little work but it is not out of the box. I am not sure if dojo has an equivalent to AsyncQueue. But back to the point of the original question there is no reason that you cannot use JQuery for task x and y and YUI for task z many of the frameworks play nice together so it may not be a matter of learning one over the other but rather using the pieces of the bigger frameworks with your existing framework.
- Psyonic 17y agoWell, sort of. While you can use multiple frameworks, you have to be careful to keep your pages from getting really heavy.
