Re: Rialto Browser UI framework

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Aaron

It seems you can spend a lot of time looking for the perfect framework, 
or settle on something more generic like jQuery and then spend all your 
time looking for the perfect gallery or grid or whatever.   ;-)

The chart you referred to that compares various frameworks, well, it 
seems that jQuery has a lot of things covered, as does Dojo and a couple 
others. One does end up, based on my limited experience, doing maybe a 
little more work with some of these. But the plugins for jQuery can give 
us so much.

I think we are using jQuery quite a bit here - the green-haired kid 
prefers it, at least up to now.

Thoughts from the peanut gallery!
