jQuery (Core) is a cross-browser JavaScript library (created by John Resig) that provides abstractions for common client-side tasks such as DOM traversal, DOM manipulation, event handling, animation and AJAX.

• DOM element selections using the multi-browser open source selector engine Sizzle, a spin-off of the jQuery project
• DOM traversal and modification (including support for CSS 1–3)
• DOM manipulation based on CSS selectors that use node element names and attributes (e.g. ID and class) as criteria to build selectors
• Events
• Effects and animations
• AJAX
• JSON parsing (for older browsers)
• Extensibility through plug-ins
• Utilities such as user agent information, feature detection
• Compatibility methods that are natively available in modern browsers but need fallbacks for older ones - For example, the inArray() and each() functions
• Multi-browser (not to be confused with cross-browser) support

• cdnjs - Cloudflare community driven project, currently used by ~1,143,000 websites worldwide.
• jsdelivr - An equally free and open source alternative CDN to cdnjs.
