Javascript framework - Fast.js

After developing web applications for such a long time, there will be some functions and pieces of code that is always use.

Javascript is built to fit the DOM node structure, hence, have rather long functions name corresponding to the different node attributes and methods. This makes coding in javascript a pain in the neck, always having to repeatedly code with the long function calls.

Of course there are frameworks available for production. There is jQuery, Mootools (Just to name a few more popular ones), all great for extensive development.

Fast.js brings another layer to javascript frameworks. Most frameworks try to change the way te scripting is done, making major alterations that vastly changes the code structure of the scripts.

Fast.js, on the other hand, only serves to provide shortcuts to the lengthy and cumbersome javascript functions. This means that code written for fast.js can be easily understood by native javascript development.

The problem with current frameworks is the lack of coherence with the original code structure. This makes it hard for developers to recreate the framework’s code in pure javascript. (Personal opinion)

Fast.js is open source, if anyone is interested in understanding how such a framework is developed, or perhaps want a base framework to improve your web development workflow, here is the bitBucket repository.

To see the Api documentation, visit this page, and to include it into your projects, include this line of code, <script src=“https://ongspxm.bitbucket.org/dev/fast.min.js"&gt;&lt;/scrip>, in the head section of your site, before all the other scripts are loaded.
