Laravel is a PHP framework with a strong and expressive syntax.
Laravel is well-documented and makes code modularization easy, allowing you to reuse chunks of code and freeing you to write the things you really want to, not only seek your way around the framework’s set of rules.
Laravel is best used together with the Artisan command line tool, and has quite a few bundles that should get you started in no time.
CSScience have made a fresh post with a responsive slider that doesn’t use JavaScript for operating.
In its core, the slider is just like any other JavaScript slider: it floats all of the content areas (articles) next to each other, and then hides the overflow.
Unlike other such experiments, this slider uses radio buttons instead of :target and anchor links, meaning that the back button works properly.
CanJS is a JavaScript framework for creating rich web applications with ease.
CanJS provides the following features:
CanJS works together with several different libraries — jQuery, mooTools, YUI, and others, — and has a different version for each parent library. The framework also ships with several plugins, such as those for validation and data adjustment.
Elegantizr from Google is a new CSS framework that avoids every single problem you might encounter with other CSS frameworks.
Elegantizr has to be updated roughly once every 6.5 years; it takes about 21s to learn, and about 5 seconds to grasp once it’s implemented. You can download it here.
The only drawback of this otherwise splendid framework is its short lifespan in terms of being useful: Elegantizr is useful only once a year, on a date we seem to have missed here at Webification. : – )
Rainbow is a JavaScript library for code highlighting.
It’s a lightweight solution (1.4kb minified), and uses modules for language-dependent code markup.
Rainbow supports a number of languages:
Another important quality of this library is the incredibly easy customization which lets you make up your own highlighting patterns, giving you a complete design freedom.
StyleDocco is a Node library for creating documentations and style guides from your stylesheets.
The actual documentation is written with Markdown; the documentation is stored in CSS comments, and can be viewed in the source code, as well as in a visual way, when passed through StyleDocco.
StyleDocco is an impeccable library that can potentially save heaps of bandwidth, reduce the amount of lines written, and time spent creating a longer documentation.
