  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • ajquery.js

    The fastest, most lightweight, least dependency jQuery alternative.

  • I loved jQuery. Still great, but browser APIs have improved.

    Now I mainly use AJQuery: https://github.com/coolaj86/ajquery.js/blob/main/ajquery.js

  • prototype

    Prototype JavaScript framework

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • jquery-tmpl

    The original official jQuery Templates plugin. This project was maintained by the jQuery team as an official jQuery plugin. It is no longer in active development, and has been superseded by JsRender.

  • A variant of this was tried over a decade ago, but never made it live - jQuery Templates. Not quite the same…

  • jsx-dom

    Use JSX to create DOM elements.

  • Fully agreed. I built a mostly vanilla JS app using a bare bones JSX lib[1] a few months ago and was surprised at how little I missed the rest of React.

  • X-editable

    In-place editing with Twitter Bootstrap, jQuery UI or pure jQuery

  • jquery-migrate

    A development tool to help migrate away from APIs and features that have been or will be removed from jQuery core

  • Loading jQuery twice is a band aid solution.

    However the jQuery 4 announcement page linked to this jQuery migration plugin that I was unaware of. Perhaps it can help in some old projects.

  • 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.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • jQuery
