Lets skip the big comparisons here and get to brass tacks. Here's the rapid review of Ajax frameworks:
- YUI -Stable and comprehensive but a little verbose.
- jQuery - Clean, fresh and perky but plenty of hacked, cruddy plugins to be wary of.
- Ext - Beautiful to look at but agonising to use.
- Prototype/Scriptaculous - Only popular because its used by Rails and CakePHP, but you can do better with jQuery.
- Dojo - Meh.
- MooTools - Trying to be like Prototype, little realising its picked thewrong one to copy.

It took me 1 second to LOL after reading this…
Why?
ext-> agonising to use … no comments
Mootolls and jQuery FTW
Now that’s what I’m talking ’bout! You’ve brought new meaning to the word “concise.”
jQuery is the coolest and the most used… needless to say
