Get it while it's hot: jQuery UI 1.5a and jQuery Enchant 1.0a!
Hi everybody!
I'm very happy to announce the first alpha release of both jQuery UI 1.5 and jQuery Enchant 1.0 to all the adventurous guys out there. This is a huge update - the whole API has been standardized and updated, and many of the plugins have been completely rewritten.
jQuery Enchant is the missing part of UI: A library completely devoted to rich effects. It already features all effects you know from scriptaculous/interface, as well as many more great additions: color animations, class animations and highly configurable effects.
Be advised that while it's extremly hot (and fresh), this release is absolutely not stable - there is no documentation at this point, so you have to digg into the demos and code yourself if you want to check it out. It's really only a testing and try-out release. This will allow us to be able to get it out to you guys, then spend the next days on further bugfixing and improvements. It would be great if you could test and report whatever you think should work from looking at the code - it really helps us to get the beta ready, which is scheduled for February 10th. The beta will come out with official release notes and an updated documentation.
Since it's alpha, it's not only stablity missing - the following stuff is not included:
- Draggable option wrapHelper
- Almost everything of slider
I will soon answer to this thread with uploaded demos that you can try out right away. Thanks a lot so far for everyone who helped in making this happen (more on that in the beta release!) Anyway, try it out for yourself!
