Sencha ExtJS is a JavaScript framework for building Rich Internet Applications (RIAs).
Sencha ExtJS
Sencha ExtJS provides a complete object-oriented framework for creating a desktop-like application that runs in a web browser or packaged as a native app. It manages object lifecycle, layouts, theming, data storage, ajax communication and a large library of component-driven UI widgets including charting.
Originally built as an add-on library for YUI, it has a modular architecture that developers can extend using JavaScript.
