Mootools r.83 cheat sheat
Just this morning I was pinging Valerio (author of Mootools) about a cheat sheet for Mootools after Snook posted his updated cheat sheet for Prototype 1.5. Funny thing; Snook posted a Mootools cheat sheet yesterday and it just hadn’t gotten to my inbox yet. Go Snook! I’m going to add this to our cvs library along with all our other docs and whatnot.
In the same vein as the Prototype Cheat Sheet, I decided to go through and detail the Mootools library, as well. In comparison to Prototype, Mootools is definitely smaller and it’s obvious they’ve put more focus on interactivity and decent DOM traversing.
I’ve colour-coded this one to match the four main categories that are in the download section of the web site and within the documentation. This way, it should hopefully be clearer when trying to compare against the two.
In going through things, I noticed that the documentation for Mootools isn’t bad but spelling mistakes and what not have meant that a couple features aren’t actually detailed in the documentation.
Anyways, for you Mootool luvin’ fans, here are the cheat sheets:

Fantastic! I am in the early phases of learning this framework and in spite of the documentation that many have written, i frequently get disoriented and am having to spend a lot of time flipping through tutorials, docs, and the like. This is going to adorn a place in front of my computer for some time to come. Many Thanks!
