A self-taught person than a main stream academic, I started development with core PHP for development of websites and applications very early in life.
I ❤️ Open Source!
Yes Sizzle can be used as standalone library without using jQuery as a dependency
but the main reason I created dizzle was because
Sizzle has lots of workarounds for legacy browsers which are not required for any modern browsers.
Based on the jQuery team's response ( github.com/jquery/sizzle/issues/473 ) they are already in the process to merge Sizzle into jQuery core and the Sizzle project will be dead. !!
On the other hand, Dizzle does not have any legacy browsers support as sizzle has
instead it uses querySelectorAll to query most elements. it basically tries query using browser API. if that fails then it prases the selector string
and loops into and query's the element
