    Restyled

    Restyled

    Style is important. Any time there's more than one way to do something in code, inconsistencies will creep in. Besides measurably adding to the time it takes to read and comprehend code, inconsistent style across a codebase can hide bugs, often very bad ones. Great tools exist for almost every language to automatically align code to a defined style. Through editor integrations or git pre-commit hooks, a single developer can give themselves a great workflow for automatically dealing with style. Doing this across a team, on the other hand, can be challenging. Restyled makes it easy to maintain, or transition to, a consistent coding style across your entire organization by integrating directly into your existing pull request process. Open a pull request that changes files in one of our many, many supported languages. If it doesn't conform to your preferred style, a status check will fail and point to another pull request where it's been restyled.

    Mobile Angular UI

    Mobile Angular UI

    Mobile Angular UI

    Mobile Angular UI is a mobile UI framework just like Sencha Touch or jQuery Mobile. If you know Angular JS and Twitter Bootstrap you already know it! Mobile Angular UI provides essential mobile components that are missing in Bootstrap 3, switches, overlays, sidebars, scrollable areas, and absolute positioned top and bottom navbars that don't bounce on scroll. It relies on robust libraries like fastclick.js and overthrow.js to achieve a better mobile experience. No jQuery dependencies, no fat bootstrap js. Just a few angular.js directives are super easy to learn to put things together. Mobile Angular UI retains most of the Bootstrap 3 syntax. This way it’s trivial to bring an existing desktop web app to mobile. Also, a super-small CSS file is provided to do the opposite. Just include it and you’ll get a fully responsive and touch-enabled interface that can be used everywhere. FontAwesome Icons are included by default in place of Glyphicons.

    Express

    Express

    OpenJS Foundation

    Express is a minimal and flexible Node.js web application framework that provides a robust set of features for web and mobile applications. With a myriad of HTTP utility methods and middleware at your disposal, creating a robust API is quick and easy. Express provides a thin layer of fundamental web application features, without obscuring Node.js features that you know and love. Express has no notion of a database. This concept is left up to third-party Node modules, allowing you to interface with nearly any database. In Express, 404 responses are not the result of an error, so the error-handler middleware will not capture them. This behavior is because a 404 response simply indicates the absence of additional work to do; in other words, Express has executed all middleware functions and routes, and found that none of them responded.

    Backbone.js

    Backbone.js

    Backbone.js

    Backbone.js gives structure to web applications by providing models with key-value binding and custom events, collections with a rich API of enumerable functions, views with declarative event handling, and connects it all to your existing API over a RESTful JSON interface. When working on a web application that involves a lot of JavaScript, one of the first things you learn is to stop tying your data to the DOM. It's all too easy to create JavaScript applications that end up as tangled piles of jQuery selectors and callbacks, all trying frantically to keep data in sync between the HTML UI, your JavaScript logic, and the database on your server. For rich client-side applications, a more structured approach is often helpful. With Backbone, you represent your data as Models, which can be created, validated, destroyed, and saved to the server.

    Animate On Scroll (AOS)
    Animate on scroll library. In order to make it work, you'll have to make sure your build process has configured styles loader and bundles it all correctly. If you're using Parcel, however, it will work out of the box as provided. AOS object is exposed as a global variable, for now, there are three methods available. Initialize AOS, recalculate all offsets and positions of elements (called on window resize), reinitiate the array with AOS elements, and trigger refresh (called on DOM changes that are related to AOS elements). By default, AOS is watching for DOM changes and if there are any new elements loaded asynchronously or when something is removed from DOM it calls refreshHard automatically. In browsers that don't support MutationObserver like IE, you might need to call it by yourself. You can also tell AOS to trigger a custom event on a specific element. You can also add custom animations.

    Bideo.js

    Bideo.js is a JS library that makes it super easy to add fullscreen background videos. Fullscreen HTML5 background video for the web. Want to play a video in the background of a container or body itself? This plugin will help you do exactly that. The video element in use will automatically adapt to the container's dimensions. It will also resize as the browser window resizes. The plugin doesn't support any overlay as it is easy to implement that with plain HTML/CSS in your code. Video might take a few seconds to load, especially because the sources are added via JS which is something you'll load after the DOM's loading. Until then, you may want to show a video cover, which will be the same as the first frame or the video (or some other image). The support for this is not in the plugin as it's fairly simple to achieve this via just HTML/CSS (just like overlays).

    Preact

    Preact

    Preact

    Preact provides the thinnest possible Virtual DOM abstraction on top of the DOM. It builds on stable platform features, registers real event handlers and plays nicely with other libraries. Most UI frameworks are large enough to be the majority of an app's JavaScript size. Preact is different: it's small enough that your code is the largest part of your application. That means less JavaScript to download, parse and execute - leaving more time for your code, so you can build an experience you define without fighting to keep a framework under control. Preact is fast, and not just because of its size. It's one of the fastest Virtual DOM libraries out there, thanks to a simple and predictable diff implementation. We automatically batch updates and tune Preact to the extreme when it comes to performance. We work closely with browser engineers to get the maximum performance possible out of Preact.
