Prototype is a JavaScript Framework that aims to ease development of dynamic web applications. Featuring a unique, easy-to-use toolkit for class-driven development and a great Ajax library. In addition to the useful library functions, it is responsible for introducing the “$” as notation within JavaScript. Prototype supports Internet Explorer (Windows) 6.0+, Mozilla Firefox 1.5+, Apple Safari 1.0+, and Opera 9+.
Prototype is implemented as a single file of JavaScript code, usually named prototype.js. It is distributed standalone, but has close links with projects such as Ruby on Rails, Rico and script.aculo.us.
Initially written by Sam Stephenson; Prototype is released under MIT License. You can find further information, demo & download on Prototype Website.
