I am planning to use jquery in Rails instead of prototype.
I am not sure to use jRails or to use plain jquery and stay away from RJS.
What do you think about this?
EDIT: Two weeks later I found this http://www.loudthinking.com/posts/32-myth-3-rails-forces-you-to-use-prototype
EDIT: This screencast is interesting too.
If you ask me, staying away from RJS is a great idea. RJS is an amazingly cool hack, but for production code it’s a pain to test and debug. I recommend sticking to UJS (Unobtrusive JavaScript), and jQuery is a great way to do UJS.
