Sprint – A high-performance, DOM library for modern browsers • Hacker News Board

Not the author, but the API still sucks to write using vanilla JS. There are also still plenty of inconsistencies in modern browsers (per an article floating around here in the last day or two).

I didn't find any information on browser support.

It says IE10+, so I would guess any vaguely recent chrome/firefox/safari as well

It doesn´t seem to support the jQuery .ajax() method, I hope its added soon

Agreed, ajax is usually the reason I just think fuck it and add jQuery

Yeah, its great that there are libraries like this that try to do better than the status quo.

But, with every new library there's always the question about support. And so since there is no involvement perceptible on its Github page (no PRs, no issues and 3months without a commit), I wouldn't want to use this in production.

Or you could just look at, say, http://microjs.com/#ajax to find a nicer microlibrary to do exactly what you need.
