The Aves Engine was the first pluginless browser game engine. It delivered fully interactive experiences, cross-platform on desktop and mobile devices.

jQuery is a fast and concise JavaScript Library that simplifies HTML document traversing, event handling, animating, and Ajax interactions for rapid web development.
