Some years ago, I was developing some web sites, and I started to learn JavaScript. For me, it was just a language that do make things blink on the page. No, it wasn’t. To tell the truth, JavaScript is my preferred programming language. It’s incredibly growing, being implemented in more platforms for more technologies (like hardware accelerated 3D games). Then, some time later, I started out to write some JS stuff, just for learning and, also, for personal use. Now I know, it’s funny, nice to work with. I just love it and the fact that I work with what I like: JavaScript.
After some huge steps (hundreds of failures and success), I came up with my own JS tool, the utm (Some time ago called ImpactAjax and Spark). But why another one JS framework? Not just “another one”. I’m planning to build the most useful library seen so far. How? Getting all the best ideas i saw so far plus all my own ideas, join them up, simplify the usage and prepare a great platform for development, all open-source, totally. Something complete, with many options, but that everyone (even beginners or advanced programmers) can easily do what they want.
I want the simplest. I want the most powerful. I want the fastest. In just some kb of compressed stuff. I want to break paradigms, bringing something really new and cool.
But it’s still not done for the real world…
Sounds interesting?
If yes, I’d ask for your help. I’m alone in this project now and I have not enough time to work on it as I’d like to do. So, if you’re interested on the idea and would want to contribute with anything, please feel free to join our little group at ##utmjs on irc.freenode.net or just post a comment here.
What we need for now:
- Testing
- Documentation
- Suggestions / opinions
- Ideas
- Or anything you’d like to contribute with
I’d be soooo glad if you join the project! Let’s make utm grow and be usable!
If you wanna see the code, get it from my utm’s git repo or download it from the site.
Thanks in advance!
