I was only aware of the following two directories: “ JSDB : a collection of the best JavaScript libraries” “ Microjs : fantastic micro-frameworks and micro-libraries for fun and profit” More directories: “ JavaScriptOO : every JavaScript project you should be looking into” (via @getify). “ JSter : a catalog of JavaScript libraries and tools for web development” (via @check_ca) “ Unheap : a tidy repository of jQuery plugins” (via @fredrik_sogaard) “ Master List of HTML5, JavaScript, and CSS Resources ” by Gene Loparco Obviously, you can always directly browse the registries of package managers (as suggested by Manuel Strehl).

The cool thing about XRegExp is that it internally compiles its extended regular expressions to normal regular expressions, meaning that they are fast. Let’s look at some of XRegExp’s highlights, quoted from the XRegExp website. Highlights: insignificant whitespace, inline comments, named groups var date = XRegExp('(?<year> [0-9]{4} ) -? # year \n' + '(?<month> [0-9]{2} ) -? # month \n' + '(?<day> [0-9]{2} ) # day ', 'x'); The above example demonstrates three features: First, the x flag makes whitespace insignificant in regular expressions. You can spread out things as much as you like and the regular expression becomes more readable. Regular expressions can be awfully crowded; this helps. Second, with the x flag, you also get inlin...
