MXFramework - A Lightweight Object-Oriented JavaScript Framework

MXFramework defines a new structure to the JavaScript language by providing models with modules, namespaces and classes. It supports the object-oriented features like inheritance, encapsulation, polymorphism. It also provides features like modular compiling and dynamic loading.

The framework also provides many useful functions by extending the prototype of JavaScript built-in types, like String, Number, Array, Date, etc.

Like many other JavaScript frameworks, MXFramework has its own way to define the components and views (or you can say controls) along with lifecycle and event support, but the framework itself does not contain any controls like Buttons, TabControl or Containers. However, you can easily develop your own controls and even libraries by extending MXComponent and mx.view.View.

Basically, MXFramework is a stand-alone framework that only relies on jQuery (2.0 or later). The project is hosted on GitHub, examples are available, as well as Eclipse plugins with wizards and JS/CSS minifiers.
