The new iota.js beta [source] is the Typescript port of iota.lib.js. It introduces support for promises and modularizes the existing codebase.

Package	Description
@iota/bundle-validator	Syntactically validates bundle structure and signatures.
@iota/bundle	Utilities for generating and signing bundles.
@iota/checksum	Add, remove and validate checksums.
@iota/converter	Methods for converting ascii, values & trytes to trits and back.
@iota/core	Core functionality to interact with the IOTA network: generate addresses, create, broadcast and monitor transactions.
@iota/curl	Curl sponge function
@iota/extract-json	Extracts JSON encoded messages from signature message fragments.
@iota/http-client	Send commands to IRI over HTTP.
@iota/kerl	IOTA-related cryptographic methods
@iota/multisig	Methods for generating multisig addresses and co-signing transactions.
@iota/pad	Padding utility
@iota/samples	Collection of samples useful in testing IOTA modules.
@iota/signing	IOTA Signing Scheme
@iota/transaction-converter	Converts transaction trytes to transaction objects and back.
@iota/transaction	Utilities and validators for transactions.
@iota/unit-converter	Converts value across different IOTA units.
@iota/validators	Collection of guards and validators, useful in IOTA development.

Getting access to API: const iota = core.composeAPI({ provider: 'http://localhost: 14265' })
prepareTransfers works offline
checkConsistency which is equivalent to isPromotable of iota.lib.js
isPromotable has additional check for transactions falling below max depth
generateAddress was added, for deterministic address generation
Added asTransactionTrytes/Object (better naming than transactionTrytes/Object)
asTransactionTrytes accepts trytes string or array of trytes
Fixed extended ascii conversion issues (#243)
extractJson conforms to JSON spec (#231)

The following methods & fields are deprecated and will be removed in v2.0.0:

All new development will now be taking place in the new TypeScript library, only important bug fixes will be made in iota.lib.js.

Adjust depth in promoteTransaction() and retry if promotion failed with reference transaction is too old error
Add maxDepth & adjustDepth options alongside reference option in getTransactionsToApprove(), sendTrytes() & sendTransfer()
Add option to reject with reason in isPromotable if call returns false
Add isTransactionHash() to validate transaction hashes, optionally with a min. weight magnitude
Add isTritArray() to validate arrays of trits.
Add isSafeString to check if a string can be safely converted to trytes
Add support for setting request timeouts with api.setApiTimeout()
Enable remote auth
Optimize getTransactionObjects() by skipping calculation of known transaction hashes.
Fix issue in batched findTransactions request
Fix keyIndexes of inputs returned by getAccountData()
Truncate checksums of inputs in prepareTransfers()
Update gulp and build /dist/iota-browser.js with sourcemap
Documentation fixes
