• Dojo Toolkit
  Dojo is the Open Source JavaScript toolkit that helps you build serious applications in less time. It fills in the gaps where JavaScript and browsers don't go quite far enough, and gives you powerful, portable, lightweight, and tested tools for constructing dynamic interfaces. Dojo lets you prototype interactive widgets quickly, animate transitions, and build Ajax requests with the most powerful and easiest to use abstractions available. These capabilities are built on top of a lightweight packaging system, so you never have to figure out which order to request script files in again. Dojo's package system and optional build tools help you develop quickly and optimize transparently.
• ItsNat, Natural AJAX
  ItsNat is an innovative open source (dual licensed Affero GPLv3/commercial license for closed source) Java AJAX Component based Web Framework. It offers a natural approach to the modern Web 2.0 development. ItsNat simulates a Universal W3C Java Browser in the server; the server mimics the behavior of a web browser, containing a W3C DOM Level 2 node tree and receiving W3C DOM Events using AJAX. Every DOM server change is automatically sent to the client and updated the client DOM accordingly. Consequences: pure (X)HTML templates and pure Java W3C DOM for the view logic. No JSP, no custom tags, no XML meta-programming, no expression languages, no black boxed components. The developer has the full control of the view. ItsNat includes features like web-continuations (continue events), user defined events, timers, long running server tasks, COMET, DOM utils (to simplify DOM manipulation), resolution of ${} based variables in markup, ElementCSSInlineStyle support in the server, automatic page remote/view control of other users/sessions, XML generation, non-HTML namepaces support (like SVG in XHTML), JavaScript generation utilities, events fired by the server sent to the client simulating user actions for instance to test the view from the server, custom pretty URLs, previous/forward document navigation (pull and push referrers) with back/forward button support using AJAX, degraded modes (AJAX disabled and JavaScript disabled modes) etc. ItsNat provides an, optional, event based (AJAX) Component System, inspired in Swing and reusing Swing as far as possible such as data and selection models, where every DOM element or element group can be easily a component.

• Flexjson
  Flexjson is a lightweight library for serializing Java objects into JSON. What's different about Flexjson is it's control over what gets serialized allowing both deep and shallow copies of objects. It also handles cycles in your object graph gracefully so you don't have to maintain parrallel object models, and translate between them.
