Show HN: Snap.js – Beautiful Facebook-style side menu in JavaScript

20 points by jakiestfu 13y ago ↗ HN

Hello HN community. Usually, I write open source code and release it to this community for you to all enjoy, but last time i released this code, I expected more feedback than I had actually received. That being said, I would benefit greatly from some feedback, whether it is about my code or my process of publicizing it. Any help would be great!

Enjoy!

How can I add a clickable link? Markdown?

julien_c 13y ago ↗

No, you just have to add it as a comment.

This is pretty neat! I don't have any meaningful feedback, since I couldn't find a way to break it :)

Just as an FYI, I was checking out Ratchet, and they are looking to add a shelf. Maybe this could be merged?

I wish they would, but the dev team of Ratchet ignores me and it's frickin obnoxious/frustrating. I sent them a link but no go. Whatever! I can only make this as best as possible. Thanks for your kind words!

Did you submit a pull request?

jakiestfu 13y ago ↗

I did quite a while ago, but was ignored probably because of the quality of the pull. Since then, I had decided to tackle it again, and I have opened an issue as opposed to a pull request.

I would encourage you to add a LICENSE file to the git repo. I can't speak for anybody else, but when I'm looking at a project and the license isn't immediately apparent, it really diminishes my interest.

That aside, this looks very nice. Good work!

Thank you, sincerely. I just added the license:)

It works really well, great job! And big thumbs up for not requiring any dependencies too!

Would be interested to know what browser support is like for older versions of Android/iOS and other phones too.

I really like it. Haven't seen one better. Will probably implement it soon.
