Bootstrap 3

About

Bootstrap is a front-end framework for a responsive, modern, and clean web interface design. It is described as a mobile-first front-end framework by the Bootstrap team at Twitter.

I use a lot of Bootstrap 3 components, including but not limited to: tabs, responsive grids, carousels, modals, collapse controls, and glyphicons. Bootstrap 4 and 5 have been released but I have not had the chance to migrate my website to one of the newer versions.

Lazy Load Remastered

About

Lazy Load Remastered is a JavaScript plugin by Mika Tuupola that is used to perform lazy loading of content. Lazy loading is the technique of delaying the loading of content until they are needed by the user.

It is commonly used on web sites that have big files or large amounts of content that would take a long time to load on a page. This is particularly useful for users who have a slow internet connection and may be forced to wait too long for a specific image to load because other images before it need to be loaded first (i.e. there is a bottleneck). This results in a horrible user experience for the user and unnecessary waiting times.

This plugin will force pages to only load the images that are currently in view of the browser window. The first set of images in the viewport will load, and any more images outside the viewport will load as the user scrolls down.

jQuery

About

jQuery is a JavaScript library that makes it easier to program in JavaScript. Element look up is a lot easier with the use of jQuery: $(.foo) returns all elements with the "foo" class. Some JavaScript plugins, libraries, and frameworks require jQuery to function. Bootstrap 3, for example, requires jQuery.
