Interesting stats on JavaScript libraries



PPK, a JS guru, published a public poll to know the popularity of JavaScript libraries. Among 3200+ votes cast, 91% said yes to the question "Do you use any JavaScript library in more than 50% of your projects"  and the same percentage of people who participated in the poll said they have used jQuery in the last year.

Popular JavaScript libraries can be accessed from Google's & Microsoft's CDNs. CloudFlare's CDN offers 158 JavaScript libraries that you can include in your code (for improved performance) instead of having a local copy. For JS enthusiasts, their library list with links to their respective home pages, is something worth exploring.
