Dojo Concepts for Java Developers

[ Thanks to jmalasko for this link. ]

"If you're a Java programmer coming to Dojo with little or no experience of JavaScript, chances are you're going to struggle with some of the concepts that enable it to work. The main concerns with Dojo are that — at the time of writing — it is still in its infancy (version 1.0 was only released in February 2008) and the documentation available is still somewhat limited. This article helps you bridge the gap from Java code to Dojo so that you can get up to speed quickly and use the toolkit when developing your applications.

"This article does not describe how to obtain the Dojo toolkit or the necessary statements needed to use it, because there are many other resources available that provide that information. The article is written for Web developers who are coming to Dojo from a servlet development background."
