  1. I’d rather call Jest a framework and Mocha a library. To get the same features as Jest developer needs to install Mocha, Chai, Sinon and JSDOM.

  2. I think you’d have a hard time describing exactly how Jest a s *not* a framework in any significant way that is different from a superset of functionality vs. Mocha.

  3. jQuery should be number 1 for its impact over the last decade. It doesn’t belong as an honorable mention… Especially not when it’s used on 80% of the top 1 million websites, whereas React/Vue/etc. aren’t even close.

  4. There’s no denying that jQuery is definitely one of the biggest JavaScript libraries.

    However, it was released in 2006 and all the other entries were released between 2010 – 2020

  5. Ember should be on this, while it’s not the most popular, it paved the way for many frameworks with concepts like “Two Way Binding”, # Routing, Ember CLI and more.a
