[–] irrational 8y ago ↗ None of these surprised me except for HTML5Boilerplate. I was under the impression that jQuery was not as popular anymore. I would think this would reduce the use of HTML5Boilerplate. [–] ry_ry 8y ago ↗ JQuery still has a huge legacy footprint, and likely will for years to come.It's not without some degree of irony it has eventually become the IE11 of JS libs. [–] emilsedgh 8y ago ↗ Meteor being more popular than Express is interesting though.Is it actually used as widely as Express? [–] coffeeboy27 8y ago ↗ Among some others in the list, I don't believe it. That's why so many people in these comments are calling this into question.

[–] stupidcar 8y ago ↗ What exactly is the criteria here? If you go by star count, the most popular JS project on GitHub is freeCodeCamp, not React.https://github.com/topics/javascript?o=desc&s=starsAnd a number of other popular JS projects have also been excluded from this list?
[–] jaequery 8y ago ↗ it's interesting how this made it to top 2 of HN. is this astroturfing? [–] Stratoscope 8y ago ↗ Agreed, this is a lame and useless page. Not worth anyone's time.
[–] bjarne92 8y ago ↗ What was the ranking criteria? Angular.js [1] has 58k stars and jQuery [2] has 48k stars. Both are not on the list.You sneaky guy just listed the cool stuff, haven't you?Maybe you should rename the blog post to: Javascript projects I like on Github1: https://github.com/angular/angular.js 2: https://github.com/jquery/jquery
