Ajax Experience 2008 - Intro to jQuery with John Resig

DIGG IT!     4 Comments Published Wednesday, November 05, 2008 at 1:26 PM .

jQuery is increasingly becoming one of the most popular JavaScript libraries to use. jQuery is a concise open source JavaScript Library used for DOM traversal, event handling, Ajax requests, and animations.
In this introduction, we look at what makes jQuery unique and why it helps you to write smaller code, faster. We also go hands-on (bring your laptops!) and write an animated Accordion Widget and an Ajax To-Do List from scratch.
In this session you learn:
A basic overview of jQuery;
How to develop a number of common-case widgets;
How to use jQuery to handle DOM, event, animations and Ajax interactions.



Cheers!

    wow jquery is really awesome especially with the dollar signs it makes work much easier. as i come from a php background i realize how dead easy it is to make php do the bussiness, and jquery do party at the front.

    I find jquery one of the most well engineered javascript frameworks.

    Aren't you worried that the Javascript libraries will take the need for Adobe Flex away (at least in case of business applications)??

    Worried? Not in the least. Ajax is a good technology to know and understand. Plus it isn't going away any time soon and neither is Flash Player. Leverage both.

    Speakers should always remember to repeat audience questions. That would have made this a lot more interesting, I think, knowing what people were asking.
