Sani - Just A Blogging Framework Using Github

Sani is a blogging framework designed for Jekyll, to be used on Github Pages with Prose.io.  To start blogging with Jekyll, you need to write your own HTML templates, CSS, Javascripts and set up your configuration. But with Sani, all you need to do is clone or fork Sani, install dependencies, and you’re set. All else is taken care of.(This is when you are setting up from your own computer.)

Sani is a bunch of HTML, CSS and Javascript script files along with a Rakefile. The HTML, CSS and JS form the theme while rake gives you automation regarding generating and publishing the blog. Sani is an implementation of what people, who don't use Octopress and Jekyll Bootstrap, use to make do with GH pages.

Sani uses Disqus for comments and a theme designed by Adrian Artiles. Also, the rakefile is mostly ripped off from Octopress with some modifications.

Setting up Sani is so easy, it can be done even if you don't have access to the device your regularly use.

tabIndent.js - A JavaScript Library For Tab-Enabled TextAreas

tabIndent.js is a JavaScript library which does two things to enhance the traditional text-box: It disables the default browser behavior (moving to the next input box) and enhances the existing textbox to capture the "tab" key and replicate behavior similar to that found in editors. (Inserting a tab character, indentation). 

Multi-line highlighted text is also tab-able, and shift-tab removes a tab character instead.

Konami.js - A JavaScript Library Which Monitors Any Arbitrary Keyboard Sequence

Konami.js is a tiny JavaScript implementation of the Konami Code, but also monitors any arbitrary keyboard sequence.  Konami.code(…) creates an event handler which you attach to any element you would like.

The Konami Code, known in Japan as the Konami Command, is a cheat code that appears in many Konami video games, although the code also appears in some non-Konami games. 

The code was first used in the 1986 release of Gradius for the Nintendo Entertainment System but was popularized among North American players in the NES version of Contra, for which it was also dubbed both the "Contra Code" and "30 Lives Code".

During the title screen before the game demo begins, the player could press the following sequence of buttons on the game controller to enable the cheat: ↑ ↑ ↓ ↓ ← → ← → B A

Scrubby - A Library To Scrub Values In JavaScript, Live

Scrubby is a JavaScript library which allows you to perform JavaScript source transformation to support Bret Victor-style value-scrubbing interfaces with the information without having to recompile code every time the value changes.  Scrubby adds a button to the top-left of the page for each script you specify that's scrubbable. Clicking on that button will open a new window with the code in it, and you can scrub live immediately.

Scrubby works by transforming your code using esprima and escodegen to replace any literal references by a reference into a global table of values. When you scrub a value, scrubby just updates the global table, so the next time your code references that literal, it receives the edited value.  When you scrub a value, scrubby updates the global $values object with the edited value. When the code runs again, it automatically uses the new value.

SSGS - Super Simple Responsive Grid System Using SASS

SSGS is a very basic grid system for the web. It allows you to quickly set up a responsive grid system using SASS.  It's a fully fluid six-column grid with fixed-width gutters.  It takes only one variable (the width of the gutters) so it's refreshingly easy to set up and use.

There's no need to clutter your HTML with lots and lots of classes as you can easily use Sass's @extend function.  It's only about 60 lines of code.

The only drawback there is right now is the dependency on box-sizing: border-box; to work properly.  That is only an issue if you work with IE prior to version 8.  There's even a neat polyfill available on GitHub. 

Since you're already working with Sass, just pop in Compass and import "compass/css3/box-sizing" to make it even easier.

There is even a plain old CSS version available if you're really resistant to awesome technology like Sass.

reMarked.js - A Client-Side HTML To Markdown Converter In JavaScript

reMarked.js is a client-side HTML to Markdown converter.  Markdown is a great way to format texts for the internet. Without much experience an easy to read text is written — without the bloat of HTML tags.

However, this comes — like so many things — with a cost: performance will suffer and CPU is wasted since normally Markdown would have to convert your texts to HTML for every page impression. Only some way of caching could prevent this.

That is exactly the point where reMarked.js comes into play: Write texts in Markdown and save them in HTML. You won’t need a copy of the original Markdown input, since Markdownify can convert the saved HTML back to Markdown. And because page impressions are far more often than write actions, this gives you a simple way to increase your page’s performance.

Another benefit for a CMS or similar software is that now only one format of text is saved — HTML.  The user can now choose whether to write texts in plain HTML or use a full fledged WYSIWYG editor.  Of course he can write in Markdown.

The ultimate goal is integration with existing WYSIWYG html editors (eg: TinyMCE, CKeditor, Loki, CLeditor) to produce Markdown output. There are currently no WYSIWYG editors for markdown, only WYSIWYM, which still require knowledge of markdown syntax and its many quirky flavors.

UltraREPL - A JavaScript Development Environment Within JavaScript

UltraREPL is a JavaScript development environment, not just a toy or a simple debugger. Developing JS code inside of JavaScript itself enables a lot of powerful options that are otherwise difficult or cumbersome. The problem is Node's existing REPL doesn't provide the tools needed to take advantage of this potential, and there's not really any other options aside from (albeit awesome) browser based environments like Ace.

UltraREPL is designed to work with zero configuration as long as Node is installed. To get it you can clone it from this repo or simply install it with npm.
