I have spent my fair share of hours trying to troubleshoot implementations of different javascript tools, and to no avail at times. The frustration is one that is shared among every developer I have talked to on this subject with no real solution. There are a lot of great tools out there, and there are a few sites that I find from time to time that actually list them all out, but none that show me a list of great tools for my library of choice, jquery. There was at one point a page that had a great list of only jquery tools, but it seems to always be down and this is my archive of that page with my additions and subtractions. I am posting this as much for my own use as anyone else who may find it useful. I will continue to update this post as I find other tools. Hope it helps someone.
