I have dabbled with various AJAX frameworks, namely GWT, Dojo, Ext-JS, jQuery UI. I am interested in understanding what AJAX frameworks best meet the following criteria:
- Most easy to learn
- Most painless to keep maintained
- Most reputable, stable, founded & grounded
- Easiest to read and share
- Integrates well with J2EE
why, jQuery of course ;-)
jQuery on the client side, DWR on the server side.
This is a tough question to answer here, because most Ajax frameworks keep improving, changing, and attracting new users. You never know where the next ultra-large scale Internet site will come from, and if they choose an Ajax framework that rates low here, they are as likely to put the developer hours into fixing it as they are to change frameworks.
So please take the advice on this question with a grain of salt, especially as the question gets older and older. Someone might update the answers or maybe not.

Im my latest project i wanted to developed full functioned dashboard with real time updates.and interface should be real slick and it should looks similar to collection of portlets. So i have started and R&D for that and i found javascript mvc frameworks and it seems fit for my requirement. but there are few backbone.js, knockout.js, amber.js etc...
So what do you guys think? is it good to have a js framework ? and what will be the best approach for this kind of dashboard.
thanks,
keth
I love nodejs You can set up a server-client websocket connection with socket.io in just a few minutes. Socket.io is way slick, here is a tutorial of someone building a dashboard with this combo. <tutorial>.
how about Ember.js, i read lot of good feed back for it compared to others

I want to learn a pattern / process for making and organising proper javascript applications. I am beginning to use OOP to simplify sections of my code, but the code is still messy so I need a process to build bigger things effectively. Should I be thinking about MVC, namespaces or libraries? Not sure if I want to choose a framework yet but any advice/suggestions is greatly appreciated!
jQuery is the best Javascript framework and you can start looking on it following the official website.
Following this blog you can find many tutorials and lessons as well.
Then if you are interested in MVC pattern to use with Javascript I suggest Backbone.
Here is all you need :
http://dochub.io/#javascript/
http://dochub.io/#jquery/
the basic knowledge of JavaScript is good to learn jquery
since the jquery is the library made in JavaScript you can manipulate and understand jquery better

I'm looking to start using knockout. What is the best IDE when using knockout.js? Most of the literature mentions VS2010, is there a good free alternative?
I love Sublime Text 2 , it's multi-platform, super-easy and very configurable.
It's not free per se, but they let you try it out with no limitation for whatever time you want. The licenses are very cheap and you don't have to buy one for each O.S.
I prefer to use something simple like notepad++ for javascript. If you want something more then Eclipse offers a javascript version.
Cloud 9 IDE. I won't say it's the best, but it's a good option.
Cloud9 is a state-of-the-art IDE that runs in your browser and lives
in the cloud, allowing you to run, debug and deploy applications from
anywhere, anytime. A complete game-changer that will change the way we
develop applications forever.

I've used Backbone.js, I've learned about Knockout.js; however, now I found out about Knockback.js. It is supposed to get the best out of the other two tried& proven frameworks.
Do you have any experience with Knockback in production? I'm wary to use it since it doesn't seem to be mature enough.
I've been using Knockback on a large multi-module project with good results. The docs and examples are unnecessarily complex, so I wrote a blog describing Knockback with some very simple examples and a JSFiddle to get you started.

Feedback is most welcome!
I wouldn't use it yet. It's hard enough to get corporate buy in on knockoutJS.
I guess it all has to do with the size of your company, the willingness to support alpha / beta / volatile open source projects.
It is the nature of the beast, this bleeding edge of innovation. Skating that thin ice of unsuportability.

Has any one used this? I don't have a large background in Javascript and this lib looks like it may speed things along.
www.pyjs.org
yep. me. i'm the lead developer. drop by on groups.google.com "pyjamas-dev" and say hello.
Yes, I've used. It's amazing! I think it's much easier to use than the Java-based GWT. I found the Google Code wiki on it very practical: http://code.google.com/p/pyjamas/w/list
If you're just starting out with it, then definitely check out the showcase: http://pyjs.org/showcase/Showcase.html for usable snippets/widgets
As of now, it is not supported on M$ Windows, but runs beautifully on Linux.
yes it works fine on windows (it's a compiler: you just need python, to run the conversion to javascript). but if you're thinking of pyjamas-desktop, 0.6 added support for MSHTML as one of the engines, so that works too.
Yes. I've used pyjs to build minesweeper game: http://pymines.appspot.com/
