TLDR: Kwicks 2.0.0 is out, is awesome, and you can find docs and examples here.
I'm happy to announce that after 4 long years of neglect, Kwicks 2.0.0 is out! This is a major version release, and has been rewritten from scratch to support a much wider range of user interactions. The 1.x series of Kwicks had a horrid API, and made several assumptions regarding use cases. Kwicks 2.0.0 takes a much more flexible and programmable approach, and does a better job of following jQuery convention.
Some quick highlights on what's new:
Methods
All Kwicks interactions may now be controlled through methods like expand and select.
E.g.,
$(element).kwicks('expand', index);Events
Kwicks interactions are also event-driven now, so event handlers may be registered for the expand.kwicks and select.kwicks events for customizable behavior.
E.g.,
$(element).on('expand.kwicks', function(e) {
// do something cool
});Smoother Animations
A few tricks have been employed to increase animation smoothness, resulting in far less "jittering".
GitHub
Kwicks source code is now hosted on GitHub! Fork it, pull it, push it - it's all MIT licensed, so have at it!
New Home
Lastly, Kwicks has moved from my old domain to join us over here on DevSmash. Check it out!
Thanks for reading!
