What is the Core?


The Core is a MooTools component (Core.js) that contains a plethora of useful functions that deal with common JavaScript tasks, such as checking if the objects are defined, and merging the objects into one.

The Core is split into two sub-components: Browser, which gives you a set of tools for acquiring information about the client accessing your scripts, and Core, which contains a mixture of helpful functions for dealing with everyday JavaScript-related processes.
