Hi Guys,

How UI technologies are grabbing opportunites in the world. what might happens to UI in next few years. Go through the article below and let me know your feedback.

These days most of the MNC companies are not depending on Web designers / web developers to build their websites/to maintain their sites. They are simply purchasing some API's and implementing the functionality with very few web developers.

What is an API??

An application programming interface (API) is a source code interface that a computer system or program library provides to support requests for services to be made of it by a computer program. An API differs from an application binary interface in that it is specified in terms of a programming language that can be compiled when an application is built, rather than an explicit low level description of how data are laid out in memory.

What are the APIs popular now?

Yahoo API
Google API
EXT JS
Prototype.JS
etc.

Now a days, EXT JS is becoming very popular.

What is EXT JS?

Ext JS is a cross-browser JavaScript library for building rich internet applications.

    Dont forget to check the licence before you use ExtJS - GPL at present.

    Google for Roojs to find the LGPL fork of an older version.

    Yes you are right.. for personal use we can download the API docs, but if we want to re-produce obviously we need to get license.. Thanks for your interest.
