PDF-LIB vs. PureScript vs. XAML vs. jQuery Comparison Chart

Create and modify PDF documents in any JavaScript environment. Create PDF documents from scratch, or modify existing PDF documents. Draw text, images, and vector graphics. Embed your own fonts. Even embed and draw pages from other PDFs. Written in TypeScript and compiled to pure JavaScript with no native dependencies. Works in any JavaScript runtime, including browsers, Node, Deno, and even React Native. Add, insert, and remove pages. Split a single PDF into separate ones. Or merge multiple PDFs into a single document. Create new forms or fill and read existing fields. Checkboxes, buttons, radio groups, dropdowns, option lists, and text fields are all supported. If you aren't using a package manager, UMD modules are available on the unpkg and jsDelivr CDNs. Note that only some PDF readers can view attachments. This includes Adobe Reader, Foxit Reader, and Firefox. If you are using the CDN scripts in production, you should include a specific version number in the URL.

XAML is a declarative markup language. As applied to the .NET Core programming model, XAML simplifies creating a UI for a .NET Core app. You can create visible UI elements in the declarative XAML markup, and then separate the UI definition from the run-time logic by using code-behind files that are joined to the markup through partial class definitions. XAML directly represents the instantiation of objects in a specific set of backing types defined in assemblies. This is unlike most other markup languages, which are typically an interpreted language without such a direct tie to a backing type system. XAML enables a workflow where separate parties can work on the UI and the logic of an app, using potentially different tools. When represented as text, XAML files are XML files that generally have the .xaml extension. The files can be encoded by any XML encoding, but encoding as UTF-8 is typical.
