Zepto.js – a minimalist JavaScript library Zepto is a minimalist JavaScript library for modern browsers with a largely jQuery-compatible API. If you use jQuery, you already know how to use Zepto.

Instead please donate to charity: water. Building The official site offers a download of the default distribution of Zepto. This is good for starting out. However, at some point you might want to add some optional modules and remove some of the default ones you don't need, to keep the size at a minimum. That's when you need to check out Zepto's source code and use the build commands. You will need Node.js installed on your system. $ npm install $ npm run-script dist # do a custom build $ MODULES="zepto event data" npm run-script dist # on Windows c:\zepto> SET MODULES=zepto event data c:\zepto> npm run-script dist The resulting files are: dist/zepto.js dist/zepto.min.js If you install CoffeeScript globally, you can run make directly: # one-time operation $ npm install coffee-script --global $ coffee make dist $ MODULES="zepto event data ..." ./make dist # on Windows c:\zepto> SET MODULES=zepto event data c:\zepto> coffee make dist Zepto modules Zepto modules are individual files in the "src/" directory. module default description zepto ✔ Core module; contains most methods event ✔ Event handling via on() & off() ajax ✔ XMLHttpRequest and JSONP functionality form ✔ Serialize & submit web forms ie ✔ Support for Internet Explorer 10+ on the 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.

On OS X, that's easy: $ brew install phantomjs To run the automated tests: $ npm test To run a test server, which you can hit with your browsers and devices: $ npm start Go to http://your-ip-address:3000/ on your browser and follow the instructions. For your convenience test failures and exceptions will be reported to the the console you started the test server in (as well as the browser console if available).
