Appendix B Implementation Details / Rationale
The majority of the development time spent on ease.js was not hacking away at the source code. Rather, it was spent with pen and paper. Every aspect of ease.js was heavily planned from the start. Every detail was important to ensure a consistent implementation that worked, was fast and that developers would enjoy working with. Failures upfront or alterations to the design in later versions would break backwards compatibility unnecessarily and damage the reputation of the project.
When using ease.js, developers may wonder why things were implemented in the manner that they were. Perhaps they have a problem with the implementation, or just want to learn how the project works. This project was an excellent learning experience that deals very closely with the power and flexibility of prototypal programming. In an attempt to appease both parties, this appendix is provided to provide some details and rationale behind ease.js.
