Transit is a jQuery plugin for creating super-smooth animations better than jQuery’s .animate() does.

Transit allows animating, rotating, skewing, transforming and much many other things.

It’s also seems easy to use and degrades somewhat gracefully. Although this plugin has merit by itself, it’d be nice to see some unit tests comparing it with jQuery’s animate.

mmenu is a plugin for creating sliding menus. It can create an app-like sliding menu with just a single line of code.

mmenu strives to create application-like sliding menus. You can configure it to your heart’s liking and probably implement it into the desktop (or joint) version of your website as well.

Windows is a plugin for creating full-screen scrolling windows.

Basically, the plugin creates as many scrolling windows as you like, allowing to place arrays of content into scrollable goodness.

Windows automatically centers the ‘window’ that takes the most part of the screen, so it’s easy for users to enjoy the full-screen experience this plugin strives to provide.

As a side note, the name of this plugin illustrates that websites like ours here are much in need. Imagine how hard it’d be to find a plugin like this if you hadn’t seen it here – not to mention the problem of actually finding this plugin on Google.

PathFinding.js is a path finding library for grid-based games.

PathFinding.js is pretty straightforward but provides complex solutions when needed. For example, you can pick from three path finding algorithms and from five ways of using them.

As path finding isn’t exactly the easiest thing to code, PathFinding.js very much comes in handy for building such navigation for use in games.

phpFastCache is a caching system for PHP. It’s made for reducing the database load on websites with a lot of traffic.

For example, if your website is visited by 10,000 people who ask for the same query, phpFastCache can generate a single query and serve all of the visitors.

It’s a simple and powerful way to increase the performance of your website.
