Installation
This module comes with the jQuery Raty library ready to go! No double downloads for you.
If you really feel like it, there is libraries integration and you can download your own.
Why Raty?
Raty is designed to be an immediate, zero-config option to either display stars from any numeric field or use them as field input widgets.
Unlike Rate & Fivestar (which are awesome modules!), there is no major voting backend to Raty. Raty also does not include a schema or create any DB tables. However, you can still simulate this behavior to a degree since you can use Raty as the input widget for any numeric field on an entity.
Use Cases
