I am looking for an alternative to Select2 that basically provides the same functionality, but includes proper tests.
The quest for the holy grail? The last unicorn?

Selectize.js is a select2 alternative I've been working on that has a suite of tests using a combination of testem, syn, mocha, and chai. Right now there are the following classes of tests:
InteractionFunctional tests that makes sure the control behaves as if the user is using it (using syn).
SetupEnsures the control can be initialized properly from existing <select> and <input> elements.
APITests core API methods for proper functionality.
EventsEnsures built-in events get fired at the right times with the proper arguments.
XSSTests a handful of potential exploits.
With that said, the tests aren't as expansive as I want them to be, but it's getting there :)

Another possible alternative is bootstrap-multiselect
"JQuery multiselect plugin based on Twitter Bootstrap"
Examples and documentation: http://davidstutz.github.io/bootstrap-multiselect/
The repository does not contain any automated tests, manual tests instead
Themed using Bootstrap 3
JavaScript source code is short: 800 lines of code
524 stars on GitHub (as of 2013/12/13)

Note: I'm no longer maintaining this project. Choose another one.
Bselect, which I develop, is tested, however doesn't include all the features (yet) from Select2/Chosen.
If you want, join me in its development :)

I use multiple javascript libraries, such as bootstrap, jquery, knockout and etc. Every time I start a new project, I have to add them manually to my layout page. It annoys me even its once per project. Nuget packager has been helpful for doing this. But as I use more libraries, nuget packager no longer fits my needs. So I'm looking for a better solution. My question is: Is there a place or visual studio plugin that can help me adding the popular and latest javascript libraries mentioned above?
I always use CDNs. That way from one project to the next, I just need the same links in my html to get the same resources. Here is a good resource.

Example code:
<script src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/knockout/3.1.0/knockout-min.js"></script>

We need to create a feature to help new users understand the product that they are testing during trial period.
We think in creating a jQuery script of semiautomated actions (AKA clics) and popup displaying information. We use a script to enter text in inputs called Ghostwriter but we need some more features.
Imagine something like when Facebooks delivers a new feature, that makes a step by step introduction in order to show how this works, the ones that you tipically clic the "OK, I get it!" button to skip it.
For some forms we did some scripts displaying tooltips next to fields explaining the usage. But doing this Web Site wide, will create lots of code.
What we need is something more declarative, where you could setup some steps, creating a script in Javascript, that should not polute the existing HTML.
How should I do this? Any experiences in this kind of issues?
This is super awesome and easy to use:
hopscotch
I like http://bootstraptour.com/
I'm sure it hits on a lot of features you need.

I am trying to make a cross-browser plugin that detects images from a webpage like imgur and pinterest. I have been looking at crossrider...is that a good option? the API is tricky to understand. If anyone has experience with something like this or can give me a good starting point, i would really appreciate it.
In general, the Crossrider framework supports cross browser extension development and provides APIs and plugins to make it easier, but at the end of the day it's up to you to evaluate the framework and see whether it meets your needs. The tutorial you quoted relates to creating a bookmarklet extension and does not pertain to images.
For your specific requirement, there is an images plugin (see the Plugins page) that facilitates working with images on a page.
As #Lix correctly mentions, this is not the place to ask such general questions and hence I recommend that you start by reading the Crossrider docs and searching the forum. If you have any further general questions, email them to support#crossrider.com.
Of course, if you have any specific code related questions, Stack Overflow is another great place to get answers ;-)

I have to develop a new blog for myself. I have recently got acquainted with AngularJS, mongoDB, node, sails, etc. I have got some primitive knowledge about all these to start the development.
So, I was looking for something similar to http://mean.io/, MEAN stack. But instead of using ExpressJS, I am gonna use SailsJS. Is there anything similar to MEAN but works with SailsJS as well? Or is there any other approach to the same, considering I am also gonna use AnuglarJS for front-end and mongoDB for my database?
AFAIK, there's no branded Sails-based alternative to http://mean.io/ yet, though some people were talking about MEANS stack already.
That being said, you have several choices for creating an Angular+Sails app. One of them is using Yeoman generator, like this one.
Another way could be this boilerplate which is somewhat official, as it's published by Balderdash, the company behind Sails. Though when I tried to test it, dependency installation was failing, so I fixed it on this fork. This boilerplate is based on the brand new Sails v0.10. Also, you are going to have to do is to connect it to your MongoDB (the default is sails-disk), see here for how-to.

I've been using knockout.js fairly effectively in my latest web-app, and it's great. However, I now need to implement a treeview, and the current contenders are here: http://www.programmingsolution.net/useful-js/jquery-treeview.php
JSTree is the one under current development, but seems to require to be initialised with html or json - under knockout, I ideally would like to have the ul list built automatically, and the treeview then automatically update after that. The "Treeview" one seems to be able to use an existing ul list, but has been deprecated
Has anyone else had any experience of using a treeview with knockout?
turns out this one does: http://bassistance.de/jquery-plugins/jquery-plugin-treeview/
so far, anyway.
hope this is of use to someone else
TreeView won't work with KnockoutJS, as both modify DOM model - you won't be able to access your observables from JSTree.
Google for Knockout Kendo, it's a mashup of Knockout and Kendo, which will allow you to use TreeView in your Knockout based website.
EDIT:
However, note that Kendo is under GNU-GPL license, which means, IIRC, that you would have to publish your website as open-source.
