Prototype (http://prototype.conio.net) is a very popular JavaScript library written by Sam Stephenson that seeks to “ease development of dynamic web applications.” Although it’s not the best-documented library, several others (including Rico, Behavior, and the ubiquitous script.aculo.us) build upon Prototype. The code is well written and pretty easy to read, plus there are several sites that have provided excellent descriptions of how Prototype works.
