SPServices is a jQuery library which abstracts SharePoint’s Web Services and makes them easier to use. It also includes functions which use the various Web Service operations to provide more useful (and cool) capabilities. It works entirely client side and requires no server install.

SPServices can be used with SharePoint 2007, 2010, and 2013, whether on premises or hosted with Office365 or others.
The documentation sections below cover all aspects of SPServices.
