As there is a three.js - http://threejs.org/ library for WebGL which makes working with WebGL simpler. Is there library for HLSL which makes working with (DirectX)HLSL simpler and efficient and powerful?

Not sure what you mean by "working with HLSL." If you mean compiling shaders in D3D11, d3d11.h and d3dcomplier.lib (part of the Windows Kit SDK) provides you with D3DCompileFromFile and other functions. The DirectX ToolKit includes an Effect class with several available shaders "built-in."

Please don't PM me with questions. Post them in the forums for everyone's benefit, and I can embarrass myself publicly.

You can try the effects library, however it will not work on Windows Store applications: https://fx11.codeplex.com/
