Javascript is a programming language that is normally used on the client side. It is easy to learn and pick up. Most Javascripts on websites serve the purpose of encouraging user experience, increase interactivity, functionality as well as web speed. DHTML (Dynamic HyperText Markup Language) is formed with the use of Javascript and CSS (Cascading Style Sheets). On the other hand AJAX(Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) is Javascript based web development technique that uses data formatted in XML.
Here at CodeGeekz, we have compiled a list of JavaScript Libraries released recently. In this roundup we have covered feature enriched and interactive JavaScript Libraries that offer you several functions and can serve number of purposes for you to build effective and useful web applications.
1. History.js
History.js gracefully supports the HTML5 History/State APIs (pushState, replaceState, onPopState) in all browsers. Including continued support for data, titles, replaceState. It supports jQuery, MooTools and Prototype.
2. Challenger
Challenger is a drop-in JavaScript library that adds interactive programming challenges to any page. Challenges are flexible and expressive, and are super simple to write. A challenge has requirements based on code structure and program output, and gives users a code editor to experiment in. When new code is written, it’s run in a sandbox and the output is analyzed. Challenges can be presented as one-off tests or linked together to form courses.
3. Vibrantjs
Vibrant.js is a javascript library to extract prominent colors from an image. It is a javascript port of the awesome Palette class in the Android support library.
4. Warrior.js
WarriorJS is a game designed to teach JavaScript and artificial intelligence in a fun, interactive way.
5. Iconate.js
iconate.js is a tiny performant library for cross-browser icon transformation animations in your projects.
6. Nude.js
If you need to detect (and potentially censor) nude images in your site or app, thenNude.js might be the script you’re looking for. Using JavaScript and HTMLCanvas, it scans images for nudity based on approaches from research papers. (The demo is censored and safe for work.)
7. Clusterize.js
Clusterize.js is a plugin that allows you to easily display large sets of data. It clusters data so that the DOM isn’t polluted with all the used tags.
8. Egg.js
Egg.js is a simple javascript library that has no prerequisites and allows you to easily add web easter eggs by watching the user’s key strokes.
9. Flippant.js
Flippant.js is a mini dependancy-less UI lib for flipping over DOM nodes.
10. Oh Snap
Oh Snap! is a simple jQuery/Zepto notification library designed to be used in mobile apps.
11. Funkier.js
funkierJS is the toolbox you need to quickly start programming in a functional style in Javascript, wherever you need it: on Node or in the browser. Utterly pragmatic, it provides useful currying mechanisms to allow you to build your own functions, which also let you choose how to manage the reality of working in a non-pure environment. Its curried implementations of much of the ES5 standard library leave you free to concentrate on your business logic, rather than reinventing the wheel, whilst simultaneously removing some trip-hazards, and enabling functional idioms like treating strings as lists of characters.
12. Checkboard
Checkerboard is a library that lets you easily create shared state among clients with zero server-side logic. It has two components: a server back-end written with node.js, and a client library for the browser.
