script.aculo.us

script.aculo.us offers a set of cross-browser user interface JavaScript libraries for dynamic website development. I haven't had a chance to try it out yet, but the demos on the site show simple chunks of JavaScript to provide animation, drag and drop, etc. script.aculo.us only handles screen actions—you'll need a backend (like Ruby on Rails) to actually produce a workable website. The libraries are in use by Web 2.0 sites like Backpack, Basecamp, and Feedburner, and more. (I couldn't find anything about how much this might cost, but it appears to be free.)
