Ultimate collection of jQuery Plugin with Demo and Example

JSSQL is a GNU Licensed database engine developed entirely with JavaScript. It is a tool for developers to interpret and execute SQL statements on a offline database. It has a conversion class developed in PHP for use with relational databases (ex. PostgreSQL, MySQL, etc..) that generates a series of data files, then the database engine in JavaScript (JSSQL) accesses the data through SQL querys and return a set of records, similar to any database engine. This is useful for querying offline databases dynamically without increasing the work of the web server or better yet: without the need for a database server.

I have been coding a Windows 8 Metro Style App using the new Windows 8 Consumer Preview bits and Visual Studio 11 Express.  The app is going to be a retro shooter that takes advantage of HTML5 Canvas for the main game engine along with several Windows 8 Metro Style App Features.  This post is going to cover how to layout the elements of your game interface on the screen. 

Lostorage. js uses the HTML5 localStorage and sessionStorage APIs to provide a persistant client-side storage, mainly targeted at web apps. It has a cookie.js like interface. FEATURES: The minified version is 2.0 KiB large, 0.87 KB if minified and gzipped. It has no dependencies. You can store any kind of data with lostorage.js: Booleans, numbers, strings, arrays and plain objects. With the usual localStorage you can just read strings. lostorage.js supports chaining.

Guggenheim. js is a framework agnostic plugin for creating sexy interactive galleries. It uses CSS3 animation (with a fallback to JavaScript) to create animated filtering, reordering and pagination of your gallery.

A few months ago, I wrote about learning JavaScript. I'm already pretty comfortable with the language, and although I did break the chain, I'm happy to report that I'm still at it. Never stop learning, right?

jQuery can be defined as a cross browser javascript browser and it is used and designed for the purpose of simplifying the client side scripting of HTML. It has a lot of advantages which makes it very widely used and popular also at the same time.

In this tutorial we'll look at HTML5 Canvas Interactivity, including how to make a simple drawing application!

In case you haven't figured it out yet, debugging in mobile is "sub-optimal". (Whatever you do - don't do a Google Images search on sub-optimal.) Brian Leroux has an epic presentation on the topic and I highly encourage taking a look through it. I thought I'd share how I'm debugging in PhoneGap and Android right now.

More on Linq2indexeddb: while the library is still under development, I want to take some time to explain how you can use this framework, and show how easy it makes working with Indexed DB.

I stumbled upon a really odd bug in my current project, which I can only attribute to the WebKit browser engine, since I was able to recreate this in a UIWebView on iOS (in PhoneGap) and in Chrome on OS X – WebKit is the common engine in both.

Javascript onMediaQuery is a neat way to trigger JS when media queries change. Jeremy Keith recently posted a fantastic way of getting CSS and Javascript to talk media queries with the CSS :after pseudo-property. This has a number of advantages over using window.matchMedia(), namely that you only have to maintain your breakpoints in one place, and it fails more gracefully.

Test-Driven Javascript is my new screencast series focusing on Javascript, TDD, Node.js, and professional web development. It's a response to the success of my Let's Play TDD series, which has grown to be truly massive--189 videos and 45 hours, at the time of this writing.
