Hi all,

I've created a Mootools-based UI framework, called VM UI Framework and I'm looking for beta testers. Here's a quick rundown:
  • It's 100% responsive.
  • Full grid system
  • An icon font
  • All of the basic typographic and UI elements you'll need
  • Over 20 MooTools plugins including charts, form replacements, form validation, modals, accordions, responsive menus, a slideshow, etc.
  • 3 templates included by default
  • MIT License
It's still in beta, so there are some known issues. Over the next few months, I hope to have it fully tested and polished for a 1.0 release. It's close, but I don't have all the resources to test it fully on my own, especially on every mobile device, so that's where I need your help.

The framework is inspired by Bootstrap and Foundation, but it's not a clone or a port. For this first version, I wanted basic feature parity, and future versions will include more plugins that are commonly needed for web application development.

During the testing period, I'll working on a commercial drag-and-drop editor for the framework. The editor won't be required to use the framework, but hopefully it will be a huge time-saver.

I have a temporary demo of the framework online at http://vm.uiframework.com. It's also on GitHub: https://github.com/VirtuosiMedia/VM-UI-Framework

I'd love to know what you think and would be happy to answer any questions. If you find bugs, please file them on GitHub.

Thanks!

Thanks for spotting that. It's not a bug, the website just isn't up yet. Eventually that'll be a valid link.

I was about to report some 404s as well -- Benjamin, maybe you should fade out those "pending" links.
