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.
