Simple Tools for Front-End Developers

Continuing with the roundup and reading list theme this week, below is a list of tools that might be of interest to front-end developers.


As always, if you have a tool, book, or script you’d like to share, add it to the comments.


CSS Menu Maker


CSS Menu Maker

An online tool for generating HTML and CSS for cross-browser menus. Some good options here, including some animated versions with CSS3. You can edit the menus right on the site, and then download the code as a zip file.


Pure CSS3 On/Off Flipswitch


Pure CSS3 On/Off Flipswitch

On/off switches, generated with pure CSS3. They’re animated, and can mimic the same kinds you see on iOS, Android, and Windows 8. Code is genreted on the fly and lets you test the result and customize to your own needs.


CSS3 Multi Column


CSS3 Multi Column

I like tools like this. It tries to do one thing well. In this case, it’s a CSS3 generator for multi-columns. And the fields for customization are laid out in a sort of mad libs way, which makes it easy to read and use.


simpl


simpl

The site “aims to provide the simplest possible examples of HTML, CSS and JavaScript.” This looks great for beginners and even more exprienced developers just looking for simple examples of various front-end features.


Img to CSS


Img to CSSmpl

At first, this looks like a useless tool. It converts an image to pure CSS, and the code generated is awful. But it’s promoted for use in Email clients, to prevent images from being blocked, which sounds like a valuable use case for some.


Pageguide.js


Pageguide.js

A script that lets you add an interactive page guide to elements on your site or app. The created guide elements can be clicked to get info on the selected object. Looks great for giving users a guided tour of app functionality, without writing everything from scratch.


The Toolbox


The Toolbox

Finally, if you want more tools, this site is a repository of single-page apps and code generators, categorized. You can submit your own tool for inclusion too.

10 alternativas a Cuevana para ver películas online

10 alternativas a Cuevana para ver películas online : Durante este último tiempo, en Cuevana se sucedieron varios “problemas” por los cuales hubo que ajustar algunas cosas antes de tiempo (como el rediseño del sitio), que dejaron a algunos usuarios ciertos problemas para acceder a las películas o series del portal. Pero realmente esto es algo que no incumbe a los usuarios y, como sabemos, existen muchas otras alternativas a Cuevana dando vueltas por Internet, que intentaremos presentar aquí mismo. Los sitios que repasaremos funcionan del mismo modo que Cuevana, mediante la instalación de un plugin que permite visualizar los videos de Megaupload o WUShare, entre otros servicios, en una calidad de imágen realmente excelente. Tal como sucede con el más popular servicio, todos ellos tienen publicidad que en algunos casos resulta insoportable, pero como dice Federico en DotPod “a caballo regalado no se le miran los dientes”. Alternativas a Cuevana 1. Moviezet Posiblemente el mejor clon d...

Learn Composition from the Photography of Henri Cartier-Bresson

“Do you see it?” This question is a photographic mantra. Myron Barnstone , my mentor, repeats this question every day with the hopes that we do “see it.” This obvious question reminds me that even though I have seen Cartier-Bresson’s prints and read his books, there are major parts of his work which remain hidden from public view. Beneath the surface of perfectly timed snap shots is a design sensibility that is rarely challenged by contemporary photographers. Henri Cartier-Bresson. © Martine Franck Words To Know 1:1.5 Ratio: The 35mm negative measures 36mm x 24mm. Mathematically it can be reduced to a 3:2 ratio. Reduced even further it will be referred to as the 1:1.5 Ratio or the 1.5 Rectangle. Eyes: The frame of an image is created by two vertical lines and two horizontal lines. The intersection of these lines is called an eye. The four corners of a negative can be called the “eyes.” This is extremely important because the diagonals connecting these lines will form the breakdown ...
