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 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.
Zepto is a lightweight and modular open-source 
JavaScript library with a largely jQuery-compatible API, designed for modern browsers and optimized for fast execution and small file size.
It provides modules for DOM manipulation, event handling, Ajax and JSONP requests, and simple animation effects, supports a chainable API similar to 
jQuery, and can be customized through a modular build system that includes only the required components for a project.
