About

JS Cookie is an open-source, lightweight JavaScript library for managing browser cookies.

It provides a simple API for setting, retrieving, and removing cookies, supports custom encoding and decoding, and is less than 800 bytes when gzipped.

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.
