  • Processing.js,[7] a port of the Processing language to JavaScript.[8]
  • EnvJS,[9] a port of the browser DOM to Rhino.[10]
  • Test Swarm[11] a distributed continuous integration test suite for JavaScript.[12]
  • Sizzle.js,[13] a standalone, pure-JavaScript, CSS selector engine.[14]
  • FUEL,[15] a Firefox extension development kit.[16]

Resig is a frequent guest speaker at companies like Google and Yahoo! and has presented at many conferences related to web technology, including SXSW,[17] Webstock,[18] MIX, and Tech4Africa.[19]

He is also the author of a widely read blog, ejohn.org[20], and moderates a large number of 'subreddits' on Reddit.[21]
