Quick start, Tutorial, Reference, API Reference, Feature explorer (incomplete?), hello world (outdated) Dojo Lib from AOL's CDN

A custom build is necessary for example when public cross-domain distributions are not accessible (isolated network) and the size of the standard dojo package is to big for the server (e.g. on an embedded system). With a custom build you can do both: Reduce the size and make it cross-domain capable. See also: quickstart/custom-builds

The following exemplary steps build a cross-domain build with standard profile to be installed on the machine of the brower. Hence the browser machine needs a webserver as well! The actual dojo app can live on a space limited device where the browser connects to:

1. Download and extract latest stable source release
2. Create the build destination dir as root, eg. /var/www/htdocs/lib/dojo/1.4/
3. Cd into dojo-release-1.4.1-src/util/buildscripts
4. Run this as root:

   ./build.sh profile=standard loader=xdomain xdDojoPath=http://localhost/lib/dojo/1.4 action=release releaseName=1.4 releaseDir=/var/www/htdocs/lib/dojo

5. The necessary include path then yield to:

   <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost/lib/dojo/1.4/dijit/themes/tundra/tundra.css">
   <script type="text/javascript" src="http://localhost/lib/dojo/1.4/dojo/dojo.xd.js" djConfig="parseOnLoad: true">

Create custom build script optimized in size!
