Zepto really aims to match the jQuery style and the majority of methods while trimming the fat and sacrificing browser compat, and weighs in at 9.2k min gzipped.

I'd say the only thing this has in common with jQuery is the use of the $. Most of the methods here can be found in many homegrown toolboxes. There is no chaining and no relationship to any of the methods here.



I guess the semantics really matter to some people but a few direct quotes from the Readme

JZed is my alternative to JQuery

This is a tiny amount of code that has enough of the functionality found in JQuery

then I filled it out with more based on the list at http://youmightnotneedjquery.com/.

The semantics are different but the functionality is completely based on jquery.
