MochiKit is a light-weightJavaScript library[1] written and maintained by Bob Ippolito.[2][3]
Inspired by thePython networking framework,Twisted, it uses the concept of deferred execution to allow asynchronous behaviour. This has made it useful in the development of interactive web pages which maintain a dialog with the web server, sometimes calledAjax applications.
Of particular note is its ability to load and manipulateJSON-encoded data sets, and MochiKit.DOM, a set of functions to easily create dynamic page components.
MochiKit forms the foundation of the client-side functionality of theTurboGears Python web-application stack. Perhaps as a result of the author's involvement in the Python community, MochiKit exhibits many idioms familiar to Python programmers, and is commonly used in Python-based web applications.
