Ajax.org Platform is a pure javascript application framework made for creating real-time collaborative applications that can run in the browser. The Ajax.org Platform simply changes the way you write the applications such as Live markup, Markup and JSON api, Collaborative backbone and 100% open source software. In short, Ajax.org is a collaborative application platform.

This Ajax.org provides an option of giving tutorial for those users who do not have any experience with the Ajax.org Platform yet. But to understand the given examples in this website, a basic knowledge of HTML/ XHTML, CSS and Javascript are required.

With the information and guidelines given in this website by the author, you will be able to start creating your own advanced web applications with a nice and attractive user interface and interactive elements that would look exactly the same way you want them too, that is the Skins. They are connected to each other, that is, Property Binding and your data, that is, Data Binding.

There are certain steps to be followed to work on this Ajax. Many illustrations are also given. First step is to create a blank html file with the doctype and the other basic tags. From the Ajax.org platform download page, download the latest SDK package. Then extract the archive to the “js” directory to your project. You are given the option of choosing between the packages without any debugger. You can use the debugger console enabled or plain, the raw Subversion sources but it is recommended for the advanced users.

You have to load the necessary Javascript file along with the HTML script-tags to connect the APF package to your project. If there are any errors when you reload the page then you should verify whether the paths to the Javascript files were correct.

The next step is to download the skin package “skins.xml” file from the Ajax.org platform download. Extract this to the root of the project. To link the skin you’re your project, you will have to insert the following line inside the BODY tags. If you want to use your own images and graphics for the controls then you will have to copy it to the concerned directory which you may specify with “media-path” attribute. We have to give an indication as the browser that you are using does not know how to render the new tags. After all this, you can start working on a new application.
