Best Lightweight and Responsive Front-End Frameworks
In this era of speed, all you need is a lightweight and solid base to build your responsive website. Here are a few lightweight front-end frameworks that can aid you in your work.
Tooltips
in HTML pages general do not need any effort from a developer’s side,
as long as they put proper title attributes to their elements. The title
is then used for showing the tooltip, but also for other things, such
as providing a screen reader with proper content. Speaking of the use
case of tooltips, the visual presentation depends on the browser your
site gets visited with. Developers with the need for more control turned
to JavaScript bases solutions years ago. Kashagra Gour created
Hint.css, which proves as a decent alternative, based completely on CSS
and HTML.
<fieldset id="o-bs-sum-buginfo"> <label for="o-bs-sum-bug-ErrorPrefix">Error Prefix</label> <input type="text" id="o-bs-sum-bug-ErrorPrefix" name="ErrorPrefix" value="" /> <label for="o-bs-sum-bug-ErrorNumber">Error Number</label> <input type="text" id="o-bs-sum-bug-ErrorNumber" name="ErrorNumber" value="" /> .... </fieldset>
label{ float:left; width:100px; //whatever width that suits your needs } p{ margin:10px 0; //manipulate the vertical spaces for each input.. } <fieldset > <p> <label for="o-bs-sum-bug-ErrorPrefix">Error Prefix</label> <input type="text" name="ErrorPrefix" value="" /> </p> </fieldset>
A beauty drop down responsive menu that shows its sub menus with icon
symbol using open symbol fonts that allowing you to add more icons as
you want. With my previous tutorial, i also show how to create Creating 3-Level Responsive Drop Down Navigation Menu with jQuery and CSS3 as well.
Today we would like to show an experimental drop-down menu with
jquery and css3 using beautiful symbol fonts. The main idea is to help
you to save time for creating menus for website, it have a lot of
content and sub-levels. Some sub-level in this menu will be shown in its
context and icons. The menu is best use in professional web design that
it can be used easily in a responsive layout.
This Responsive Drop Down Navigation Menu using plugin such as:
In this article you will see that there are some amazing HTML5 and
CSS3 3D graphics examples with demo link. Usually, HTML5 goes hand in
hand with CSS3 to create the professional web experiences. In fact,
websites developed in HTML5 animation will not require adobe flash support on your Web browser anymore, provided that your browser supports HTML5.
Many people believe that HTML5 new advanced technology to create professional website
and animation templates on web online in stead of flash. HTML5 is a
lightweight, powerful and easy to use platform such as games, 3D
animation, 3D graphics by using HTML5 canvas, CSS3 and
JavaScript. In fact, HTML5 and CSS3 represents the future of mobile
browsing and that’s because of it’s comprehensive and lightweight
abilities.
CSS 3D transforms are smooth, hardware accelerated and simple to
implement, with browsers taking on what would be very difficult
perspective calculations.
Recommendation: For best results, please use a browser that supports
HTML5 and CSS3 such as Google Chrome, Latest Versions of Firefox or
Opera

Whilst this CSS3 declaration might not be crucial to your project or
design and yes it is not supported by all browsers, but it is a
fantastic effect that really takes your design one step further.
Currently FireFox, Safari, Chrome and Opera support the text section attribute, and the browsers that don’t support it simply ignore the code so nothing will break, so it doesn’t really matter.
We have setup a demo which you can test out further down the page; we have used the Design Juices colours in the example.

I’ve been working on a pretty cool wall-mounted status board as one
of my projects at Fog Creek. It’s a webapp that runs on a vertically
mounted LCD screen in our office. It displays a bunch of interesting
information like tech support calls, staff vacations, tweets about
FogBugz, and more.
I’ve been incrementally adding features and improving the UI whenever
I have spare cycles. The other night, I decided to redesign the Kanban
board widget, which is a list of the top N things that the customer team
needs from engineering. I decided to go with a sticky note UI that
mimics a real-life Kanban board, which typically consists of a giant white board filled with a bunch of sticky notes.
My initial design used the classic yellow sticky notes, which I
thought looked pretty neat. I showed my co-worker Rich who suggested
that we make the notes look like the FogBugz and Kiln notepads that are
laying around the office. Awesome idea! Way better.

In this tutorial we will see how to create a simple multi-step signup
form using CSS3 and jQuery. To spice up things a bit, we will include
progress bar with the form, so the users will be able to see the
percentage of form completion.
You can take a look at the working demo if you click on the image below:
The other day we were wondering how we could show our visitors more
of our works. It’s normal that in a blog older posts get forgotten and
even if something might still be very interesting and relevant, it get’s
lost under the pile of new stuff. So we decided to create something
like a little widget that can be used to show related posts in any page.
The main idea is to show a fixed list at the right side of the screen
with some thumbnails sticking out. When the user hovers over the items,
they slide out, revealing the title and two links, one for the related
article itself and one for the demo. Additionally, we will have a
shuffle button under the list. When pressed, the list gets randomly
refreshed with related posts.
Before we use this, we of course, want to share it with you :)

The following tutorial and the demo works best on Chrome and Safari,
correctly on Firefox and very badly in Internet Explorer (eh…I’m sure
you hadn’t guessed that).

CSS has come a long way in recent years, and with new browser support
for a hand full of CSS3 properties we can begin to replicate design
styles directly in the browser that beforehand were recently only
possible in our design applications. Follow this walkthrough of the
making of Circlicious, a vibrant and abstract digital poster design made
purely of HTML and CSS.
The Circlicious poster art makes use of plenty of circular geometric
shapes and features lots of transparency to add multiple levels to the
design, giving the design that bright and crisp feel of typical vector
artworks. Being a design that makes use of CSS3 properties, it’s only
suited to the modern browsers of Firefox, Safari and Chrome.

As you have probably heard by now, CSS3 animations are a powerful
tool, which enables you to create animations which run without the need
of applying additional scripting to the page. What is even better, in
the next generation of browsers we will have even more powerful tools,
including 3D transformations (already present in Safari).
But what difference does it make for us today?
At the moment only three browsers give you the ability to animate CSS
properties – Chrome, Safari and Opera, which together take up only a
small part of the browser market. Firefox is expected to soon join the
club, and with the impending release of IE9, it suddenly makes sense to
start leveraging this technique.
So today we are making something practical – a simple CSS3 animated
navigation menu, which degrades gracefully in older browsers and is
future-proofed to work with the next generation of browsers.

In today’s tutorial we will create a full page cufonized menu that
has two nice features: when hovering over the menu items we will move a
hover-state item that adapts to the width of the current item, and we
will slide out a description bar from the left side of the page,
reaching towards the current menu item.
We will use jQuery for the effect and some CSS3 properties for the style. We are not going to use any images.
People love to make flat things appear as if they're
three-dimensional. There are two ways to pull off this effect in a 2D
environment, shape and movement.
By give a flat shape the appearance of edges or sides, we can make
buttons or other objects appear as if they are raised or sunken into the
screen.
The movement effect is a bit trickier. In a three-dimensional world,
objects closer to you move fast, while the ones further away move slow.
The further away an object is, the slower it moves. This is called the parallax effect. The parallax effect has been used in all sorts of places for the past few years.
The first method, shape, works because it makes things appear to be
popping out, or pushed away from you. The second method, movement, works
because it makes things seem as if they are positioned in context with
each other. But, what if we combined them. An object that looks sunken
into the screen, like a shelf, and its edges shrink and grow, using the
parallax effect, making the object appear as if it really is in 3D
space.
First we need to add some markup on our page and give the items we want to affect the class of inset
. Any block level elements will do. Here is a simple form with inputs that will have the effect applied.
