Frameworks for Efficient Ajax Loading

Every developer wants to build a highly efficient Ajax based application. One of the challenges a developer has to go through is to load the application as fast as possible. Running on JavaScript, users will have a hard time loading the webpage if the Ajax based application is loaded at the same time.

Fortunately, there are frameworks that have the ability to control page loading in JavaScript. The result is a fast paced Ajax based application which could load the initial webpage piece by piece instead of loading the application altogether.

The following are the frameworks that have this feature:

1. Ajile – One of the simplest frameworks you’ll find that supports JavaScript. Merely a JavaScript extension, this framework could work as application control. Developers should be able to build an Ajax based application and with the help of this extension, developers should be able to control which parts of the page should be loaded first. Script changes are very easy with use of Ajile. Developers will never need to load their codes in the host page to test their codes first. They can easily update an application without the help of host and the update could just be loaded directly to the website.

2. Persevere Client – This type of framework pushes persistent objects to effectively run in an Ajax based application. Persevere can continuously stream functions to the client side, effectively launching the application and their functions. As much as Persevere could push these Ajax based objects, it can also control them. On-demand JavaScript could be easily loaded and controlled with the use of this framework.

3. MapBuilder – This open source framework that could be easily loaded in an Ajax based application as it maps the whole application. Developers could select which function should load first eventually mapping the entire application for faster loading. MapBuilder works well with Ajax because it concentrates in XML codes wherein every data as well information of functions are stored. MapBuilder taps these data and eventually controls them to effectively load the application.

4. JSAN Import System – JSAN or JavaScript Archive Network could be considered as the storage platform for functions and scripts of an Ajax based application. Developers could upload the function and scripts as a module and configure JSAN how the application could be effectively used. The only limitation is that it only works in top level directories. But even with that limitation, it can load the functions in groups thus controlling the page loading of the Ajax based application.

5. Dojo – One of the most popular frameworks for Ajax development, we have saved the best for last. Dojo simplifies JavaScript to a level that most applications that runs on Dojo will load efficiently. If you want to control the functions, there is a package system in Dojo (copied from Java) that enables the developer to effectively handle different functions.

These are the frameworks that ease the load in JavaScript and Ajax based applications. By properly controlling the functions to be loaded, user experience is increased not only in its function but also in page loading.
