Hi Sprint
"); ``` ## Philosophy Sprint is an alternative—not a replacement—for jQuery. jQuery offers more features, handles more edge cases and supports more browsers. Sprint is just a thin layer making the DOM friendlier without sacrificing on performance. ## Performance Sprint relies on newer APIs supported by modern browsers (read: IE10+) and optimizes a bunch of other things in order to provide you with fast DOM operations. Here are a few performance tests of some popular methods (Chrome 42, OS X 10.10.3) : ### .add()  [→ View on jsperf](http://jsperf.com/sprint-js-add) ### .attr()  [→ View on jsperf](http://jsperf.com/sprint-js-attr) ### .css()  [→ View on jsperf](http://jsperf.com/sprintjs-css) ### .has()  [→ View on jsperf](http://jsperf.com/sprint-js-has) ### .map()  [→ View on jsperf](http://jsperf.com/sprint-js-map) ### .next()  [→ View on jsperf](http://jsperf.com/sprint-js-next) ### .not()  [→ View on jsperf](http://jsperf.com/sprint-js-not) ### .parents()  [→ View on jsperf](http://jsperf.com/sprint-js-parents) ### .position()  [→ View on jsperf](http://jsperf.com/sprint-js-position) ### .slice()  [→ View on jsperf](http://jsperf.com/sprint-js-slice) ### .text()  [→ View on jsperf](http://jsperf.com/sprint-js-text) Thanks to its reduced feature set, Sprint is also a lot faster to parse and execute (about 40 times faster than jQuery). ## API The methods supported by Sprint are, for the most part, identical to jQuery's. The few small differences with jQuery are explained below.
