Top 23 Polyfill Open-Source Projects

Project mention: How do I detect requests initiated by the new fetch standard? How should I detect an AJAX request in general? | /r/codehunter | 2023-07-02
Most js libraries use XMLHttpRequest and so provide HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH: XMLHttpRequest, but neither Chrome's implementation nor Github's polyfill of the new fetch uses a similar header. So how can one detect that the request is AJAX?

Project mention: Emacs' helm is maintained by one maintaner for 11 years long | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-22
This is surprisingly common. The other example off the top of my head, a single maintainer of a very popular project who had to temporarily abandon it due to lack of funds, is Denis Pushkarev (zloirock) and core.js (https://github.com/zloirock/core-js/blob/master/docs/2023-02...).
The majority of OSS projects have most of their contributions by one person (the project leader), and the vast majority of OSS contributors don't do it for their job. It seems nearly every single popular OSS project is like this (one unpaid, maybe sponsored, volunteer doing most of the work); it's not even worth listing projects and names, because you can just pick a couple projects you know and I bet at least one will be an example. Fortunately, most of these people seem to be well-off (probably in part due to the quality of programming jobs), but every once in a while there's someone who's not so fortunate. It should be more common to sponsor maintainers, especially if they are asking for donations provided they can prove that they really need the money (the world we live in, some people who have plenty fake issues to solicit donations, then others who genuinely need and deserve the money are scolded and left unfunded because of them).

history.js
History.js gracefully supports the HTML5 History/State APIs (pushState, replaceState, onPopState) in all browsers. Including continued support for data, titles, replaceState. Supports jQuery, MooTools and Prototype. For HTML5 browsers this means that you can modify the URL directly, without needing to use hashes anymore. For HTML4 browsers it will revert back to using the old onhashchange functionality.

The sale took place on February 24, 2023, so it has been a minute. In the post on LinkedIn, there was a link provided to a GitHub issue, and from there I also found the tweet (X?) from Andrew Betts strongly encouraging folks to stop using the service. At first, it sounded like the main concern here was that a Chinese company was behind the purchase. I understand that in the current world political climate, there is a "trend" to distrust anything Chinese. This however also impacts other communities such as Nigerian communities and others in Africa, India, and many developing countries. Claudio Wunder on the OpenJS Foundation Slack was the first to raise this concern which I then echoed.

Project mention: Is there an open source tool for analyzing JS/CSS compatibility with different browsers? | /r/webdev | 2023-05-11
I've looked for this in the past. There's not much for this that is totally comprehensive. You might find success with eslint-plugin-compat which will error when using things that aren't supported in your browsers.
