Today we will create a colorful Retina-ready and responsive menu inspired by the colors of the Maliwan manufacturer of the Borderlands game. The menu automatically changes to one of three different layouts depending on the browser window size: a “desktop” inline version, a two columns tablet-optimized version and a mobile version with a menu link to display and hide the navigation for smaller screens. To make the menu fully retina-ready, we will use an icon font so that the icons of the menu won’t get pixelized on resize.
Text Opening Sequence with CSS Animations & jQuery
Today I want to show you how to create a fun little typography effect with CSS animations and text shadows. Maybe you know those eerie opening sequences of movie trailers where some text is being faded in on a dark background. After seeing Introducting Briefs (which is not a terror movie trailer but a preview for an interesting app) I got inspired for recreating the effect using CSS. we’ll use Dave Rupert’s Lettering.js to wrap the words and letters into multiple spans.
Morphing Devices : Slideshow for showcasing Responsive web design
Today we want to share an experimental “morphing” slideshow with you. The idea is to transition between different devices that show a screenshot of a responsive website or app by applying a “device class”. By using the same elements and pseudo-elements for all the devices, we can create an interesting morph effect. We will control the classes and the switching of the image with some JavaScript. We’ve also added an option for autoplaying the slideshow and for rotating some of the devices.
Rubberband : jQuery plugin for adding responsive breakpoint events
Rubberband is a jQuery plugin for adding responsive breakpoint events. Sometimes you need to know when a responsive page changes. Rubberband allows scripts to act on media query changes in real time by making use of the browser’s internal media query matching system, window.matchMedia.
FlexNav : jQuery Plugin for Responsive Menus
FlexNav is a mobile-first example of using media queries and jQuery to make a decent site menu with drop downs. Special attention is paid to touch screens using touch events and tap targets.

Basically I want a simple model to build upon when working on sites from scratch.
