It provides a cross-browser selector engine, formerly known as Sizzle, supports deferred and promise objects for asynchronous workflows, has built-in JSON parsing and utility functions, and allows extensibility through a large ecosystem of plugins.

Swup is a versatile and extensible page transition library that offers smooth animations, smart preloading, native browser history and enhanced accessibility.
