About

Prototype is a JavaScript framework that aims to ease development of dynamic web applications.

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.
