About
Prototype is a legacy open-source 
JavaScript framework that eases cross-browser development of dynamic web applications.
It offers Ajax helpers for asynchronous requests, DOM extensions including element selection shortcuts and a 
CSS selector engine, class-based inheritance, an Enumerable module for array iteration, form field access methods, and a template formatting class.
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.
