Useful libraries to provide in javascript

[mdutoo]

Javascript is powerful but alone does not much for helping doing technical & business level SOA stuff. So libraries have to be provided in EasySOA javascript engines : FraSCAti (Studio)'s, node.js if used in Light. They can be written :

• in the engine's language : they are usually more efficient, can provide access to specific features & platforms, but have to be provided or even written more specifically
• in javascript : a lot of useful & quite cross-engine libraries exist and can be provided

Note that engines come with built-in libraries (ex. browser, node.js).

Useful features to provide in javascript :

• content (un)marshalling libraries : XML, JSON

& see ideas below

Useful javascript libraries to provide :

• js-commons
• google closure for browsers & for node.js provides optimizing compiler, type & mixins, templates, libs (collection, test, encryption, date & i18n, event, math), style checking (but hard for node.js)

Farther / less useful :

• coffeescript : easier javascript

Not sure I get what you mean about WebEngine JavaScript : are you referering to groovy scripts support in Automation and WebEngine ?
