The OpenJS Foundation is an organization that was founded in 2019 from a merger of JS Foundation and Node.js Foundation. OpenJS promotes the JavaScript and web communities by hosting projects and funding activities that benefit them. The OpenJS Foundation is made up of 38 open source JavaScript projects including Appium, Dojo, jQuery, Node.js, Node-RED and webpack. Founding members included Google, Microsoft, IBM, PayPal, GoDaddy, and Joyent. OpenJS has received over 800,000 Euros from Germany's Sovereign Tech Fund. Prior to the jQuery Foundation, the jQuery project had been a member of the Software Freedom Conservancy since 2009. Earlier that same year, jQuery published the Sizzle selector engine software as a spin-off from jQuery itself, and donated its copyright to the Dojo Foundation to encourage collaboration. jQuery Foundation was founded in 2012 as 501(c)(6) non-profit organization to support the development of the jQuery and jQuery UI projects. jQuery is the most widely adopted JavaScript library according to web analysis as of 2012. The jQuery Foundation also advocates on behalf of web developers to improve web standards through its memberships in the W3C, and Ecma TC39 (JavaScript). It created a standards collaboration team in 2011 and joined the W3C in 2013. In 2016, the Dojo Foundation which developed the Dojo Toolkit merged with jQuery Foundation and subsequently rebranded itself as JS Foundation and became a Linux Foundation project.
