Jacob Thornton’s NetTuts article, 12 Steps to MooTools Master, is a high-level introduction to the MooTools JavaScript framework. The informative article touches on such MooTools topics as Mutators, Prototypal Inheritance, custom events, binding, and more. This tutorial probably isn’t for the complete beginner, but is a good place to start for people still relatively new to MooTools and those considering it for the first time.

The short story

Here’s the recipe: MooTools modules Native, Class, and Class.Extras (24k uncompressed); jQuery; and Class.Mutatotors.jQuery. Write a MooTools Class and use jQuery for the DOM.

Class.Mutatotors.jQuery

This mutator automatically extends the jQuery object with the class, so you can use conventional jQuery syntax to instantiate and control the class.

“Users wishing to upgrade any large site from MooTools 1.1 to 1.2 can sometimes find it difficult. The API for 1.2 changed quite a bit, so without help upgrading your code can be fraught with danger.

Our solution is an upgrade helper that will allow you to replace your old MooTools 1.1 code with 1.2 code by logging deprecated methods to the console and telling you what needs to be changed.

The upgrade helper also attempts to automatically convert 1.1 calls to 1.2 calls. However, this helper is not really meant to be a compatibility script so much as a script designed to help you migrate your code. In almost all cases methods that have been deprecated or have had their API altered will provide feedback to the console when they are called. Ideally, developers will put this script into their environment with MooTools 1.2, use their application and change all the calls that throw warnings, then remove the upgrade helper from their environment.”

“jQuery offers a quick event shortcut method called “hover” that accepts two functions that represent “mouseover” and “mouseout” actions. Here’s how to implement that for MooTools Elements.”
