That's correct, but only half correct :)

Johnny-Five programs can run on board any SBC that runs Linux and can support Node.js. For those platforms, GPIO and serial bus interfaces are interacted with directly; examples include Raspberry Pi, Intel Edison (+Galileo 1 & 2, Joule), Tessel 2, Linino and pcDuino

You're conflating "JavaScript the programming language" with "DOM, the awful sack of shit".

Don't do that.

I absolutely agree with this. Several years ago I did the same exercise with Zepto, which definitively disproved its compatibility claim.

Yes, performance comparisons, but those could've been measurements of no-op versions of functions by the same name.

There isn't a single test for this project. How can its claims of jQuery-alike-ness be supported?

Tests, or it doesn't exist.

If Facebook made use of smart OCAP practices, none of that would be possible. Use of object identity as a "security key" would prevent code that doesn't have access to the "key" object from being successful.
