What is ExtJs

● ExtJS has a huge collection of controls (ranging from textboxes to highly sophisticated UI Controls).
ExtJs History
● Started as extension to Yahoo's YUI! Framework in 2006 – YUI-Ext !
● By the end of the year, the library had gained so much in popularity that the name was changed simply to Ext, a reflection of its maturity and independence as a framework.
● A company was formed in early 2007, and Ext is now dual-licensed under the GPL v3 and a proprietary license.
