Polymer
Polymer
The Polymer library provides a set of features for creating custom elements. These features are designed to make it easier and faster to make custom elements that work like standard DOM elements. Similar to standard DOM elements, Polymer elements can be instantiated using a constructor or document creation element, configured using attributes or properties, populated with internal DOM inside each instance, responsive to property and attribute changes, styled with internal defaults or externally, and responsive to methods that manipulate its internal state. Registering an element associates a class with a custom element name. The element provides callbacks to manage its lifecycle. Polymer also lets you declare properties, to integrate your element's property API with the Polymer data system. Shadow DOM provides a local, encapsulated DOM tree for your element. Polymer can automatically create and populate a shadow tree for your element from a DOM template.Starting Price: Free -

Koa
Koa
Koa is a new web framework designed by the team behind Express, which aims to be a smaller, more expressive, and more robust foundation for web applications and APIs. By leveraging async functions, Koa allows you to ditch callbacks and greatly increase error handling. Koa does not bundle any middleware within its core, and it provides an elegant suite of methods that make writing servers fast and enjoyable. A Koa application is an object containing an array of middleware functions that are composed and executed in a stack-like manner upon request. Koa is similar to many other middleware systems that you may have encountered such as Ruby's Rack, Connect, and so on - however, a key design decision was made to provide high-level "sugar" at the otherwise low-level middleware layer. This improves interoperability, and robustness, and makes writing middleware much more enjoyable.Starting Price: Free -

SenchaLabs
The JavaScript InfoVis Toolkit provides tools for creating interactive data visualizations for the web. The best way to start is to take a look at the demos page. Each demo has a See the Example Code link that takes you to the code for that example. The actual library code is included in the HTML file by building the lib each time with only the needed requirements taken from the name of the visualization and the build.json file. The required library code is built by the build.py file. In order to create a new visualization you need to set up the server environment to include test JavaScript files for your new visualization and also you need to add the new visualization files into the Source folder.Starting Price: Free -

Velocity.js
Velocity.js
Velocity is an animation engine with the same API as jQuery's animate. It works with and without jQuery. It's incredibly fast, and it features color animation, transforms, loops, easings, SVG support, and scrolling. It is the best of jQuery and CSS transitions combined. Download Velocity, include it on your page and replace all instances of jQuery's animate with velocity. You will immediately see a performance boost across all browsers and devices, especially on mobile. Velocity works everywhere, back to IE8 and Android 2.3. Under the hood, it mimics jQuery's queue, and thus interoperates seamlessly with jQuery's animate, fade, and delay. Since Velocity's syntax is identical to animate, your code doesn't need to change. JavaScript and jQuery are falsely conflated. JavaScript animation, which Velocity uses, is fast; it's jQuery that's slow. Although Velocity works alongside jQuery, it uses its own animation stack that delivers its performance.Starting Price: Free -

JsPHP
JsPHP
The free open-source JsPHP library. The JsPHP website is a 100% free community resource that provides a collaborative platform and web-based Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for building an open-source JavaScript library called JsPHP that provides an implementation of the PHP API for JavaScript environments. An Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is a tool for writing computer programs, and that's what the JsPHP website is a tool for creating and testing software. In the JsPHP IDE registered users can edit the JavaScript functions in the JsPHP library and can also write code to test that those functions are working properly or to test how well those functions perform (how fast they run when they are executed on the computer). If you're just starting out with learning JavaScript then helping out at JsPHP is the perfect way for you to get started because we have lots of beginner-level work that needs to be done that you could help us with.Starting Price: Free -

Modernizr
Modernizr
Modernizr tells you what HTML, CSS, and JavaScript feature the user’s browser has to offer. It’s a collection of superfast tests, or “detects” as we like to call them, which run as your web page loads, then you can use the results to tailor the experience to the user. All web developers come up against differences between browsers and devices. That’s largely due to different feature sets, the latest versions of the popular browsers can do some awesome things which older browsers can’t, but we still have to support the older ones. Modernizr makes it easy to deliver tiered experiences and make use of the latest and greatest features in browsers that support them, without leaving less fortunate users high and dry. Modernizr is a small piece of JavaScript code that automatically detects the availability of next-generation web technologies in your user's browsers. Modernizr uses feature detection to allow you to easily tailor your user's experience.Starting Price: Free -

First, install the QUnit package using npm. You can now run the test suite through the QUnit CLI. It is recommended that you run the QUnit command via an npm script, which will find the QUnit command automatically from your local dependencies. Check out the API documentation to learn more about the QUnit APIs for organizing tests and making assertions.QUnit follows the Node.js Long-term Support (LTS) schedule and provides support for current, active LTS, and maintenance LTS releases.Starting Price: Free -

14
Mocha
Mocha
Mocha runs in the browser. Every release of Mocha will have new builds of ./mocha.js and ./mocha.css for use in the browser. By adding an argument (usually named done) to it() to a test callback, Mocha will know that it should wait for this function to be called to complete the test. This callback accepts both an Error instance (or subclass thereof) or a falsy value; anything else is invalid usage and throws an error (usually causing a failed test). These reporters expect Mocha to know how many tests it plans to run before execution. This information is unavailable in parallel mode, as test files are loaded only when they are about to be run. In serial mode, tests results will “stream” as they occur. In parallel mode, reporter output is buffered; reporting will occur after each file is completed. In practice, the reporter output will appear in “chunks” (but will otherwise be identical). If a test file is particularly slow, there may be a significant pause while it’s running.Starting Price: Free -

RequireJS
RequireJS
RequireJS is a JavaScript file and module loader. It is optimized for in-browser use, but it can be used in other JavaScript environments, like Rhino and Node. Using a modular script loader like RequireJS will improve the speed and quality of your code. This setup assumes you keep all your JavaScript files in a "scripts" directory in your project. To take full advantage of the optimization tool, it is suggested that you keep all inline script out of the HTML, and only reference require.js with a requirejs call like so to load your script. All of them map to loading some/path/some/module.js. Ideally we could choose the CommonJS syntax, since it is likely to get more common over time, and we want to reuse code.Starting Price: Free -

Apple
Writing Swift code is interactive and fun, the syntax is concise yet expressive, and Swift includes modern features developers love. Swift code is safe by design and produces software that runs lightning-fast. Swift is the result of the latest research on programming languages, combined with decades of experience building Apple platforms. Named parameters are expressed in a clean syntax that makes APIs in Swift even easier to read and maintain. Even better, you don’t even need to type semi-colons. Inferred types make code cleaner and less prone to mistakes, while modules eliminate headers and provide namespaces. To best support international languages and emoji, Strings are Unicode-correct and use a UTF-8 based encoding to optimize performance for a wide-variety of use cases. You can even write concurrent code with simple, built-in keywords that define asynchronous behavior, making your code more readable and less error-prone.Starting Price: Free -
