A web developer is building a compact jQuery alternative

A web developer has a greatly scaled-down version of the jQuery library released. The so-called jquip library is considerably more compact but still contains 90 percent of the most important jQuery elements.

The jquip library, jquip.js known, is after being minified and compressed with gzip only 4,28 MB heavy, only 13 percent of the size of the jQuery framework. According to the developer Demis Bellot contains jquip virtually all the major components of the popular jQuery library, and can be used as a drop-in to an external request to the module to skip.

Web developers that use javascript to apply and parts of jQuery use, would, by jquip to apply the speedups achieved by the browser’s less code to load. If a developer yet a particular component is missing, then you can use a number of plugins, this functionality will still be there for them.

The maker also claims various optimizations in the source code of jQuery to have made, but it calls on users of jquip to possible missing jQuery parts to sign so that it can be added. In addition, he refers for further javascript optimizations to the Ender project, a package that makes it possible for your own javascript packages to build.
