About
jQuery is a fast, small, feature-rich 
JavaScript library designed to simplify 
HTML DOM tree traversal and manipulation, event handling, 
CSS animations, and Ajax.
It provides a cross-browser CSS selector engine, supports deferred and promise objects for asynchronous workflows, has built-in 
JSON parsing and utility functions, and can be extended through a large ecosystem of plugins.
Modernizr is an open-source feature detection library that identifies browser support for HTML, CSS, and JavaScript features and allows websites to adapt accordingly.
It enables developers to detect supported browser features at runtime, apply progressive enhancement, load polyfills only when required, and provide fallbacks for unsupported features.
