ajax survey 2006

Ajaxian released the results of their 2006 ajax-survey, asking more than 860 developers about their coding-habits. according to the survey, the leading ajax-framework clearly is Prototype, with about 43% of the developers using it to date, followed closely by the visual-effects library Script.aculo.us (33%) which is built on top of Prototype. Dojo, DWR and Moo.fx close in between 11 and 19%. personally I’m using Script.aculo.us for the eyecandy and some convenience-features, but prefer to do ajax-calls directly via xmlhttprequest - interestingly, so do 25% of the polls’ respondents.

ajax backend-coding is predominated by PHP (49%) and Java (37%), with some smaller chunks for .NET (16%) and Ruby-on-Rail (14%). check out the detailed results
