The MooTools forge is awesome. This screencast shows you how to make it more awesome by adding your own mootools plugins to the forge. It features my newest plugin, Fx.Scroll.Carousel, though I wish I could have done this screencast for SlideShow instead, since it’s my favorite plugin I’ve made so far. Enjoy!

Awesome! thank you so much Ryan, as always great stuff!
Just a tip, if you commit with the -a flag (git commit -a) it will add stuff, so you dont need to do “git add .” everytime.
Excellent screencast, this would make a wonderful addition to the official Mootools forge plugin how-to page.
The error you made in the documentation actually provided an opportunity for even more useful information!
Thanks for the video. It was a big help. As a sidenote, I’m failing to the ‘base’ feature in http://mootools.net/shell. However, I see that url contains you user name and assume I can’t base because I’m not logged in. Does this tie into the forge or some other login somehow? Thanks again.
@TVR
It doesn’t tie into the forge, and I don’t know if you can’t set a shell as base w/o being logged in! I’ll try to find out. I also hope to make a screencast soon all about mooshell / jsfiddle.
