I would love to see jQuery 1.7 WITH sections for Deferred, Promise, and Callbacks… these are huge additions.

I like the way you presented the work flow of various framework really a help full one.

Keep Goin

Btw, just FYI, the word “easily” is misspelled in the jQuery Deconstruction page (and in this one) as “easiliy”.

It’s more an exploratory journey to get a handle on how frameworks are written – where stuff goes, in what order, what constructs are used (object, extend, class), how functions are initialized (self-executing, class initializers, object.function), the general flow within a framework, etc. As well as being a useful way to see the actual source without being overwhelmed.

If a new and quite evolved version of any of the frameworks came out, I would consider putting in the effort to update / amend the existing code.

I thought you have some magic script that does all the hard work for you.
How do you plan to adapt this doc for new versions of jQuery, when they will be released?

Thanks, not sure what your first question means though.

Second question, could do, but not likely. Too much hard work. This is how I did it:

1 – Designed a bunch of Dreamweaver snippets to wrap the various elements
2 – Processed the resulting HTML with a series of well-written RegExps to create anchors, links, and so forth
3 – The next step is a good few hours’ worth of manual copy / pasting descriptions and links from the relevant API docs
4 – Finally, some nicely-written jQuery to create all the interactivity

I am in the process of releasing Prototype and MooTools breakdowns though:

Feel free to throw ideas my way
