Raphaël - a JavaScript Library for vector graphics
Submitted by Georg on Thu, 2009-01-01 16:47
There are many JavaScript Libraries out there which all have their pros and cons. My personal favourite library is jQuery which provides a very easy interface for DOM manipulation. And it has a powerful UI Addon and a huge plugin library too. Although for some particular task one would use a library that is specialised in it, like Ext JS for spreadsheets.
Today I found a library which helps you in the of SVG and VML. It is called Raphaël and provides an adapter that makes SVG and VML drawing cross-browser and easy. The current library supports Firefox 3.0+, Safari 3.0+, Opera 9.5+ and Internet Explorer 6.0+. If you tried to archive this on your own you will know how helpful such a library can be. Check out the demos like the nice polar clock.
