Spry -- AJAX Framework from Adobe Labs

Check out Spry, yet another AJAX framework from Adobe Labs. AJAX has been a buzzword and a definitive JavaScript library that  seems to be the essence of current trend web applications. AJAX brings in a lot of benefits for the web applications. A few of them are:

  • Extremely User-friendly Applications.
  • Highly Responsive Applications.
  • Friendlier on Internet Pipelines since the entire webpages need not be retransmitted back and forth between the web server and the web clients.
  • Friendlier for Servers since the servers do not need to regenerate the entire page.
  • Greatly helps the web browsers since they do not need to repaint the entire application. This is of tremendous significance in cas of lower end machines.
