Detailed Description

Javascript libraries can be served by the VFS_stdlib for use with the vfs_javascript_client repository.

These libraries are for use with web browsers, both mobile and desktop. They have been tested and are supported on Chrome, Firefox, and Safari.

Plugins that serve their own code can also use these libraries as base classes.

Code is always fetched from the central static access method VFS_creator::code(). This method will uglify (http://www.crockford.com/javascript/jsmin.html) javascript code when its served, which has the effect of making it smaller as well as obfusticating it to the end user.

Warning

Virtually no testing has been done with Internet Explorer, Edge, or Opera, so use these at your own risk.

Note

It is not a requirement that the VFS_stdlib library be used, however if a different library is used, it will need to support the VFS_remotoserver protocol and diff engine concepts.
