Web development is much easier with JQuery and JQuery UI

Long time ago, I had horrible experiences with Javascript for web development so I tried to avoid it by making a flat page with minimal script as possible. Not only the script but the browser compatibility was also a big problem.

Serveral years later, the game has changed since the arrival of jQuery. It makes our life better. It's easy and fun to write an interactive web as its motto is "write less, do more". It does also handle browser compatibilities for us and come with fancy features like ajax, css manipulation, effects.

If your need UI, you should try jQuery UI. It surely works great with jQuery. You can easily integrate pretty UIs to your web with several themes to choose.

If you don't want to write your own script from scratch, there are many add-ons/ plug-ins available for jQuery / jQuery UI from its user base e.g. an image viewer, slide show, menu, toolbar, layout, data tables.

I'll write about those cool add-ons later.

My recent project is "PantipShop.com", an online computer & accessories superstore that based on jQuery and jQuery UI with selectable themes (and language). I hope to make it an online service available for public later. If you are interesting in Thai traditional products, visit "Gedthawha.com".
