noty
noty (GitHub: needim / noty, License: MIT) by Nedim Arabacı is a plugin for displaying notifications. It supports alerts with the usual set of levels, and also allows a prompt to be displayed. A “noty” can be created using a function that accepts an options object:
var noty = noty({ text: 'noty - a jquery notification library!' });
An existing container can be populated using the familiar jQuery syntax:
$('.custom_container').noty({ text: 'noty - a jquery notification library!' });
Notifications can be queued, allowing a large amount of alerts to be handled sensibly. This plugin also supports themes through CSS or a JavaScript file.
jquery.tocify.js
jquery.tocify.js (GitHub: gfranko / jquery.tocify.js, License: MIT) by Greg Franko is a table of contents plugin that works with jQuery UI’s ThemeRoller and jQuery’s animation effects. It also supports history.pushState, so pressing the back button will work as expected.
Given a suitable container div, running $('#toc').tocify(); will generate a table of contents based on the headers on the page.
Routie
Routie (GitHub: jgallen23 / routie, License: MIT) by Greg Allen is a lightweight hash routing library. It’s not specifically dependent on jQuery, and the author has packaged it nicely with a makefile and build instructions. Routes can be defined as follows:
routie('users', function() {
//this gets called when hash == #users
});
routie({
'users': function() {
},
'about': function() {
}
});
It also works with regular expressions to allow parameters to be accessed. Notice how parameters are mapped to the function arguments:
routie('users/:name', function(name) {
});
The project includes tests written with Mocha and Chai.
