In keeping with its efforts to promote the Web as as a development platform, Google on Thursday plans to release a set of internal JavaScript programming tools as open source software.
Google’s Closure Tools were used to create Gmail, Google Docs, and Google Maps, among other IT services.
The Closure apps include Closure Compiler, a JavaScript optimizer designed to produce efficient JavaScript, code that, the IT company claims, has fewer bugs and is easier to maintain. It removes unnecessary code and compacts the rest to maximize speed.
There’s also a Firefox extension that works with Firebug called Closure Inspector. It aims to simplify debugging by making optimized code more readable. Firebug is a Firefox extension that facilitates HTML, CSS, and JavaScript debugging in the browser.
