This post is actually a great way to review any library. But there are two things I’d add:
> While Google is useful, ranking in Google Search is a popularity contest, not a quality test. To be exhaustive, we started with the initial list of libraries we found back in 2019 and used the references to other libraries in their documentation to find more.
In this case NPM and GitHub search are great for this. You can also sort by many important attributes and filter by keywords.
The other point that was unaddressed is to actually read the source code. Is the source easy to understand? Depending on the library the source code might be an important source of documentation.
