curl.js is a small, fast, extensible AMD-compliant asynchronous module loader for browsers that also handles CommonJS modules, CSS, text, and legacy scripts. Development has stopped and the project is deprecated, with maintainers only responding to issues.
Use cases
- load AMD modules asynchronously in the browser
- load CommonJS modules in a web page
- load CSS and text files in parallel with JavaScript dependencies
- wait for domReady before executing modules
- load legacy non-AMD JavaScript files in parallel
- bundle modules with the cram build tool
When to choose
- maintaining a legacy codebase already built on AMD or cujoJS
- you need a tiny (~4KB gzipped) AMD loader for old browsers like IE6+
- you must load mixed resources (JS, CSS, text) with dependency ordering in an older browser environment
When to avoid
- starting a new project - use native ES modules or a modern bundler instead
- you need actively maintained tooling or security fixes
- your app runs from the file: protocol rather than a web server
