Now that everyone is releasing their own AJAX frameworks, Google decided not to be left behind on this one. Check it out:

“Google Web Toolkit (GWT) is a Java software development framework that makes writing AJAX applications like Google Maps and Gmail easy for developers who don’t speak browser quirks as a second language. Writing dynamic web applications today is a tedious and error-prone process; you spend 90% of your time working around subtle incompatabilities between web browsers and platforms, and JavaScript’s lack of modularity makes sharing, testing, and reusing AJAX components difficult and fragile.”

It’s available at their code site and you can get updates via their blog.

What’s wrong with this? It’s JAVA. boo.

Yahoo UI Library

Microsoft’s Atlas, although I prefer AJAX.Net pro for ASP.Net web applications

Adobe’s Spry, which I wrote about earlier

There are many, many more.
