We generally use one of the popular JavaScript frameworks like jQuery, YUI, MooTools or Prototype for web projects even if the project only needs a very small part of the functionality. Microjs helps you discover the most compact-but-powerful microframeworks, and makes it easy for you to pick one that’ll work for you.
Such a usage ends up in bigger-sized web pages although it can be prevented easily by using “to-the-point” micro frameworks.
Microjs is a website which is a directory of such tiny (<5kb) JavaScript libraries and frameworks.
From a list of options, you can select the feature you need like: a base framework, CSS animation, data manipulation, etc. and it’ll present you the resources that can meet your requirements.
Although getting used to new frameworks may seem like a “loss of time”, it’ll probably pay back in load times (specially for the mobile).
