Tutsplus.com have released an awesome tutorial on creating Twitter scrolling… without jQuery.
The tutorial walks the user through creating a twitter-like scrolling page.
What’s the point of doing this without jQuery?’, one might ask.
Besides being an awesome article, this tutorial brings about many things which a developer often doesn’t think about — how to do things without libraries, how to approach performance for smaller tasks, and how reaching beyond your comfort zone will make you a better developer.
Plus, as a comment at the article said, “It’s always fun to hear another web developer’s inner monolouge. Makes me feel a little less crazy.”.
