Here you will find information about how to contribute to the mout project, tips, design decisions and other advanced topics.

Project goals

  • increase code reuse;
  • be clear (code should be clean/readable);
  • be easy to debug;
  • be easy to maintain;
  • follow best practices;
  • follow standards when possible;
  • don't convert JavaScript into another language!
  • be compatible with other frameworks;
  • be modular;
  • have unit tests for all modules;
  • work on multiple environments (IE7+, modern browsers, node.js);

What shouldn't be part of mout

  • UI components;
  • CSS selector engine;
  • Event system - pub/sub;
  • Template engine;
  • Anything that isn't generic enough to be on a standard library;
  • Anything that could be a separate library and/or isn't a modular utility...
