Maxun
Small event-delegation library for decoupling event binding and handli
Maxun named JsAction by Google serves as a lightweight event delegation library built in JavaScript. It allows developers to separate the logic of binding events from the code that handles those events, helping to keep DOM event wiring cleaner and more maintainable. It is archived and marked as read-only, indicating that the project is no longer actively maintained or intended for production use. The README states that ongoing development has migrated into a larger framework under the Angular project. It includes modules for dispatching events, for capturing native events, for custom event details, and for action flows. Because it is purely JavaScript (and uses HTML for test harnesses), it is suited for web browsers and front-end use. Although deprecated, it can still serve as a reference for how to architect event delegation and binding abstractions. -

This allows developers to audit multiple pages of a site automatically instead of manually running Lighthouse on each individual page. Lightcrawler supports configuration through a JSON configuration file, enabling users to customize how the crawler operates and which Lighthouse audits should be executed. Settings such as crawl depth and the number of concurrent browser instances can be configured to control how aggressively the crawler scans a site. It was created as a developer utility to help identify issues across an entire website more efficiently. -
