Detailed Comparison
While 100% jQuery coverage is not a design goal, the APIs provided match their jQuery counterparts. The goal is to have a ~5-10k modular library that downloads and executes fast, with a familiar and versatile API, so you can concentrate on getting stuff done. | The Famous Framework is a new JavaScript framework for creating reusable, composable, and interchangeable UI widgets and applications. It balances declarative with imperative and functional with stateful, and it's built on top of the Famous Engine. |
zepto - Core module; contains most methods;event - Event handling via on() & off();ajax - XMLHttpRequest and JSONP functionality;form - Serialize & submit web forms;ie - Add support for Internet Explorer 10+ on desktop and Windows Phone 8.;detect - Provides $.os and $.browser information;fx - The animate() method;fx_methods - Animated show, hide, toggle, and fade*() methods.;assets - Experimental support for cleaning up iOS memory after removing image elements from the DOM.;data - A full-blown data() method, capable of storing arbitrary objects in memory.;deferred - Provides $.Deferred promises API. Depends on the "callbacks" module. ;When included, $.ajax() supports a promise interface for chaining callbacks.;callbacks - Provides $.Callbacks for use in "deferred" module.;selector - Experimental jQuery CSS extensions support for functionality such as $('div:first') and el.is(':visible').;touch - Fires tap and swipe–related events on touch devices. This works with both `touch` (iOS, Android) and `pointer` events (Windows Phone).;gesture - Fires pinch gesture events on touch devices;stack - Provides andSelf & end() chaining methods;ios3 - String.prototype.trim and Array.prototype.reduce methods (if they are missing) for compatibility with iOS 3.x. | Reusability / interchangability. The Famous Framework is built around powerful constraints and a declarative syntax that make it possible for components to be reused and interchanged.;Application consistency. In an ecosystem where widgets/applications/utilities all follow the same guidelines, developers and designers both reap the benefits: less trial and error when attempting to integrate with others' projects.;Integration with existing web standards. Although our integration is far from complete, from the beginning we've aimed to design and build the framework around existing web standards.;Static analyzability: Components that follow the constraints established by the Famous Framework can be staticaly analyzed, which hints at some exciting possibilities for tools and services that could be built on top. |

What are some alternatives to Zepto, Famous Framework?
jQuery
jQuery is a cross-platform JavaScript library designed to simplify the client-side scripting of HTML.
AngularJS
AngularJS lets you write client-side web applications as if you had a smarter browser. It lets you use good old HTML (or HAML, Jade and friends!) as your template language and lets you extend HTML’s syntax to express your application’s components clearly and succinctly. It automatically synchronizes data from your UI (view) with your JavaScript objects (model) through 2-way data binding.
React
Lots of people use React as the V in MVC. Since React makes no assumptions about the rest of your technology stack, it's easy to try it out on a small feature in an existing project.
Vue.js
It is a library for building interactive web interfaces. It provides data-reactive components with a simple and flexible API.
jQuery UI
Whether you're building highly interactive web applications or you just need to add a date picker to a form control, jQuery UI is the perfect choice.
Svelte
If you've ever built a JavaScript application, the chances are you've encountered – or at least heard of – frameworks like React, Angular, Vue and Ractive. Like Svelte, these tools all share a goal of making it easy to build slick interactive user interfaces. Rather than interpreting your application code at run time, your app is converted into ideal JavaScript at build time. That means you don't pay the performance cost of the framework's abstractions, or incur a penalty when your app first loads.
Flux
Flux is the application architecture that Facebook uses for building client-side web applications. It complements React's composable view components by utilizing a unidirectional data flow. It's more of a pattern rather than a formal framework, and you can start using Flux immediately without a lot of new code.
Famo.us
Famo.us is a free and open source JavaScript platform for building mobile apps and desktop experiences. What makes Famo.us unique is its JavaScript rendering engine and 3D physics engine that gives developers the power and tools to build native quality apps and animations using pure JavaScript.
Riot
Riot brings custom tags to all browsers. Think React + Polymer but with enjoyable syntax and a small learning curve.
Marko
Marko is a really fast and lightweight HTML-based templating engine that compiles templates to readable Node.js-compatible JavaScript modules, and it works on the server and in the browser. It supports streaming, async rendering and custom tags.
