New Yahoo! UI (YUI) library release! (2.4.0)
Yahoo! released yesterday a new version of the feature-rich, BSD licensed YUI (the Yahoo! User Interface library) implementing several improvements, some new controls and other innovative functionality. The components that quickly turned heads over here, are namely:
- The charts control: finally we get those infamous pie charts for free (requires Flash like most of the web chart and graphing tools, but its quality is certainly higher than some of the competitors)
- Improved performance for the rich text editor: apparently now you can select its components in a fine-grained manner, avoiding load of unnecessary functions
- New fanciness for the button control...
- Hell of a load of fixes, ranging from browser specific issues and compatibility changes
Their change-log contains a complete overview of the fixes and the new features. We are integrating this new release for the (Ruby on Rails powered) content management system engine we have developed for our corporate site, and recommend YUI for any serious web developer seeking a library providing solid controls and functionality. Besides, it comes with no strings attached.
