The plain JavaScript answer, dated.
One page per jQuery method: the modern code first, the jQuery call it replaces, the Baseline date the browsers caught up, and the two or three ways it differs. Plus a directory of libraries that work from a script tag, with facts fetched by script.
Functions
Snippets in nine groups, the old URLs kept. Each one runs in a headless browser before it publishes.
