RaptorJS is a framework for building adaptive modules and UI components.
RaptorJS is developed by eBay and is unique in that it features ‘adaptive packaging’, which allows developers to target code for a specific environment. This is achieved with putting environment-specific code in different files to make a whole that functions without glitches everywhere.
Besides that, the framework has the following advantages:
Chardin.js is a jQuery plugin that creates a simple instruction overlay (like that of Gmail) with instructions.
Chardin.js can be used within a specific element. It has few methods and less events, but the plugin is still very effective.
The information (i.e., the description of an element, its ‘instructions) is added to elements via tags.
jWebAudio is a nice jQuery/standalone library for controlling sound effects.
It offers a lightweight (9kb minified) and easy to use solution for most tasks required for video game development.
Some notable features: fade in/out; loop; multishot for short sounds; and so on.
It comes in standalone and jQuery-powered versions. The library also allows seeking, controlling the volume, and essentially makes most audio-related tasks easy.
TODC Bootstrap is a neat little Google-styled theme for Twitter’s Bootstrap.
TODC is quite packed with features — 12-column responsive grid, IE7 support, and even a web-based Customizer — and its design looks pretty good, reminding you of Google Drive and other apps by this company.
The addons also are reminiscent of Google, such as search bars, navigation bars and alert notifications.
Groundwork is a fully responsive HTML5, CSS and JavaScript framework/toolkit.
Groundwork is built using SASS and Compass. It’s flexible and responsive, works on all major browsers and devices.
Along with that, Groundwork also features a very compelling grid system with up to 12 columns per row.
Queen is a new framework for running JS scripts on remote browsers with Node.js.
Queen.js can run distributed tasks on numerous browsers. It is used, for example, in Thrill.js, a browser testing tool by the same author.
Queen.js sports some rather impressive features:
