====== Working With Mootools ======
MooTools will not work with most javascript libraries. The following list is just a really short example of what MooTools will not work with.
  * Dojo
  * Prototype
  * jQuery (Might work with noConflict enabled.)
  * YUI
What if you write your own library? Well, if you use any Class names such as **Fx** or **Class** or function names like **$**, you'll find your code or MooTools code borked.
In addition to that, if you use native properties of //_proto_//, the prototypes in JavaScript, MooTools probably will break your code since MooTools modifies a lot of prototype stuff. 


===== Discussion =====
The MooTools Team has a good reason for making MooTools work this way.
  * Code would not be optimized if two libraries are included.
  * Javascript naming conflicts are a pain.
  * Development focus on playing nice rather then innovation.
There are other things, of course, but these are major ideas that the Team follows.
