Using jRails, you can get all of the same default Rails helpers for javascript functionality using the lighter jQuery library. The visual effects in jRails are based on the new jquery-fx library. jRails currently uses a slightly modified version of jquery fx code to get some of the desired effects. This code is evolving and is subject to change. In the meatime, you can get a taste of the visual effects that are currently available.
