Like most programmers who’ve done Rails development, I’ve become very familiar with the Prototype library for JavaScript. Even apart from being built into Rails, Prototype was a natural choice for me. I knew JavaScript pretty well before I started working with Prototype, and was very pleased by how the library filled in some of the weak spots in the language. Additionally, having already been a Ruby programmer for a few years, Prototype’s philosophy seemed very natural; it clearly draws inspiration from Ruby.
