jQuery/JavaScript

September 14, 2015 by Tim

jQuery and JavaScript plugins/widgets aim to be slotted into a web page to serve some specific purpose. Most programmers have entire libraries of these on their hard drives, but here are a few I did recently that are more useful for a general audience.

Weather Widget

Weather Forecast Widget

A jQuery app that allows you to look up the current conditions and five-day forecast for any ZIP Code. [View Weather Forecast]


Acronym Finder Widget

Acronym Finder WidgetA jQuery app that lets you enter an acronym and get a list of many possibilities of what it stands for. (Someone suggested I add a potential language warning as some acronyms aren’t safe for work…) [Go to Acronym Search]


Lights Out

Lights Out Puzzle GameThis puzzle game looks easy enough, but it can quickly get incredibly frustrating. The goal is simple: turn all the lights out. But, there’s a catch…

The game uses jQuery to control the lights, calculate whether the board is ‘won’, and so forth. [Play Game]


 

Tic Tac Toe

Tic Tac Toe GameIt’s not War Games, but my son wanted me to write this. [Play Game]
