Some times ago I was working on app where for each category we had to assign random color in case that user didn’t choose one. A few day ago I needed to generate random color again. Instead of copy/paste code from one place to another much better is to create re-usable module. Also, this might not be unusual request and potentially could be useful to others.

just.RandomColor is Javascript random color generator in one of hex, RGB, RGBA formats and it can return object with color data or CSS string. It can be used on both, client and server side.

I like experiment with data visualization on client side. For that purpose, of course, I need some data for development phase. Since that development phase means that something constantly change, I had to find a way to make my life easier. That’s why I wrote a group of JavaScript range functions which helps me to create array of different types and formats of data really fast.

I just had to put them in some namespace, so “just” was good enough. Coincidentally, JUST can be acronym for JavaScript Useful Stuff, so I’ll probably use it more in the future. I’m still looking word for T, so any suggestion is welcome.

I like winter because of holidays and snow. Not big fan of going to shopping and buying New Year gifts and presents, but I am fan of snow and snowboarding. That’s why I enjoy watching how snow falling even if that’s only on my monitor.

Idea is to create one snowflake initially, clone that snowflake at some time interval and add random values for properties for each of them. And it’s done in less than 1kb minifed.

I was looking all over the Internet for some jQuery gallery plugin with some interesting transition effects. I found a lot of great plugins but they all have pretty same transition effects. Mostly that was fading and sliding effects. I wanted something different so I decide to made my own slideshow gallery plugin for jQuery. That’s how was born jqFancyTransitions.

My main idea was to build some ’strip curtain’ effect and I start from that. But, while I was building this some other effects just pop up and I decided to adjust code and include some of those effects. Now, there are ‘wave’, ‘zipper’ and ‘curtain’ effect, plus options that can be used for custom effect. You can see how it works on examples and documentations page. (more…)
