slabText is a jQuery plugin for creating responsive headlines.
slabText is actually a JS port of the elderly slabtype algorithm.
The library is inspired by FitText that we’ve covered earlier, but it’s different in some aspects:
- slabText is for creating headlines, not landing-page-style ‘giant text’;
- slabText has functions for manually separating words;
- FitText doesn’t automatically separate words into lines.
Overall, the library is a very good solution for creating awesome, responsive headlines; and the breakpoint system (plus other nifty features) help a lot.
