Well as I mentioned in my post, AJAX is a very small part of most JavaScript frameworks even though people continue to just call them AJAX Frameworks. Anyways, below is a list of the most popular ones I know of. Please let me know if there are any JavaScript frameworks that are worth mentioning here. Aside from using the APIs in these frameworks, I still think its necessary to really understand JavaScript. As I mention in my post I truly think you are not a web developer unless you really know JavaScript.
