AmiJS is MochiKit with anorexia. Orangoo Spell Check update.

AmiJS

I have spent some time yesterday on my own little JavaScript library. I am a big fan of MochiKit and I have used it in different projects, but I am breaking up. MochiKit is a great library, but it just isn't lightweight enough. I want performance - both in execution and file size.

I have reused and redone all the MochiKit functions that I used and found useful. It works with my applications (Skeletonz, Orangoo Spell Check and another "secret" application I am developing). It has:

• DOM hacking capabilities
• AJAX support
• JSON transport support

The parts of MochiKit that I used were around 116 KB. My script is around 12 KB! That is around 10 times smaller - wohoo! Apart from that, it is probably a lot faster.

In the upcoming weekend I will probably write some documentation. It isn't fully compatible with MochiKit.

You can grab it here. It is pretty well tested.

Orangoo Spell Check update

Orangoo Spell Check is now updated! This new version should work very well! The new things are:

• Bug fix: Text with HTML tags can now be used
• Bug fix: Fixed a scroll bug (this one took some time -..-)
• New layout
• The code is rewritten to use AmiJS
• One can now see what language is currently selected

I have also added a Google ad (to try it out). GoogieSpell will be updated in this weekend.

Today I got a REAL cool popup window idea - stay tuned!
