moo.fx is a handful of javascript effects in 3kb, dependant on Prototype’s ~28k JS. Looking through the moo.fx source code just reinforces a few things I’ve already adored about Prototype:

1. The Prototype library has such a unique coding style and, without needing to say a word, these extension libs just follow it.
2. By nature of providing mixins, Prototype made extensions totally natural.

The world does need a browser with a Ruby VM inside. Anyway, that’s the point.
