jQuery-ext announced

The jQuery team announced that the jQuery Project and Jack Slocum’s Ext Project, mostly know as YUI-EXT, have partnered to integrate the amazingly lightweight and powerful jQuery framework with Ext’s awesome UI library.

This collaboration will greatly enhance the capabilities of both projects and expand the functionality available to developers using the jQuery JavaScript Library and the Ext UI component suite.

For those of you new to the Ext project, it includes a wide and powerful UI library, such as dialogs, grids, layouts, resizables, tab panels... This is great news for the jQuery community. Now you would be able to extend jQuery with powerful widgets from interface and Ext.

I'm very excited to see that people using jQuery will now be able to leverage the ext framework. Jack has been hard at work and I was happy to see the 1.0 Alpha released today. (Quiet release, only on the forums. He didn't post a big blog entry) Definitely something to check out!

I am currently working on a number of tutorials for the ext team which I will be posting as blog entries on a regular basis.
