Free CoffeeScript Book

17 Jun

coffeescript

Found this nice coffeescript book through the podcast of Jason Seifer (javascriptshow.com). This was my first reference to coffeescript and I have to say that is really easy to learn and makes you write super clean code. Coffeescript compiles down to Javascript and the syntax was inspired by Ruby and Python.

Pure CSS alternatives to Javascript

19 May

Pure CSS Speech Bubbles

A list of good alternatives if you want to substitute Javascript with CSS. They’re not meant to replace them for better execution but as an alternative if you want to get something very similar by just coding in CSS. Maybe you want to fall back to CSS for those users that have Javascript disabled.

Easy zoom in a picture with jQuery

15 May

tree

A simple jQuery script that zooms into an image after 1 second.
check out the demo here

THE CSS
We define a masked area of 200×200 and an absolute position of the main picture to create
a viewport

#window {
    width: 200px;
    height: 200px;
    overflow: hidden;
    position: relative;
}
 
#window img {
    width: 500px;
    position: absolute;
    top: -150px;
    left: -300px;
}

THE HTML

3
    <div id="window">
        <img src="http://ufomuffin.com/files/etc/tree.jpg">
    </div>

THE JQUERY
We wait a second using delay(1000) and then we use the animate function from jQuery to change the width of the image creating a zoom effect. Notice that at the same time we’re going to the positions top: -150 and , left: -300 to position the viewport in a specific region.

$(document).ready(function() {
        $('#window img').delay(1000).animate({width: 800}, 800, function() {
          $(this).css({
            top: '-150px',
            left: '-300px'
          })
        })
});

CSS Transitions made simple

2 Apr

css

Now that we can use CSS transitions in all the modern browsers, let’s make them pretty. I love the classic Penner equations with Flash and jQuery, so I included most of those. If you’re anything like me*, you probably thought this about the default easing options: “ease-in, ease-out…yawn.” The mysterious cubic-bezier has a lot of potential, but was cumbersome to use. Until now. Also, touch-device friendly!
