vanilla-lazyload
LazyLoad is a lightweight, flexible script that speeds up your website by deferring the loading of your below-the-fold images, backgrounds, videos, iframes and scripts to when they will enter the viewport. Written in plain "vanilla" JavaScript, it leverages IntersectionObserver, supports responsive images and enables native lazy loading.

Choices.js is a JavaScript library for creating custom select boxes, text inputs, and multi-select inputs. It is popular for its flexibility and ability to handle complex select components without relying on jQuery. It is like Select2 and Selectize but written in vanilla JavaScript so it is lighter and more modern.
-
mixitup
A high-performance, dependency-free library for animated filtering, sorting, insertion, removal and more

van
🍦 VanJS: World's smallest reactive UI framework. Incredibly Powerful, Insanely Small - Everyone can build a useful UI app in an hour.
VanJS deserves a mention here! https://vanjs.org/
Another interesting thing is that other JSX libraries like Solid.JS also return DOM nodes, and I love that this idea is gaining traction
The closer we get to the platform we're using, the better. Being removed by layers of abstractions CAN be useful, but in practice, I haven't found a use for abstracting away the platform. (yet.)
Maybe huge projects like Facebook benefit from this tho (which I haven't worked on)

surreal
🗿 Mini jQuery alternative. Dependency-free animations. Locality of Behavior. Use one element or arrays transparently. Pairs with htmx. Vanilla querySelector() but better!
Love that this happened, but I've been waiting for 4.0 soooo long that I ended up making my own modern jQuery: https://github.com/gnat/surreal
key differences:
* Vanilla first. 1 file. Under 340 lines.

Swap.js is a JavaScript micro-library which facilitates AJAX-style navigation in web pages, in less than ~ 100 lines of code. (See "Why?" paragraph below) (by josephernest)
With the same idea but more minimalistic, I have done Swap JS two years ago :
