Prototype Website and Documentation
At the risk of repeating news, and reporting it late at that, in internet time at least, and using too many appositives in a sentence, prototype has finally gotten documentation!
According to their website:
Prototype is a JavaScript Framework that aims to ease development of dynamic web applications.
Basically, it aims to take a lot of the common functions that web developers use, finding elements on a page, making ajax calls, writing classes, etc and wrap them into a library that worries about the various browser implementations of javascript so that you don't have to.
Prototype has recently been officially released as version 1.5, up to now there had been a few release clients. As part of the release they have released a website at prototypejs.org that finally includes a central place to view API documentation and discuss how you use prototype with other developers! Additionally, the people at Global Moxie have made the documentation available as a pdf for easy printing and offline reference. Great work!
