BootStrap from Twitter


Twitter BootStrap
What is BootStrap?
It a front-end open source toolkit for rapidly developing web applications. It is a collection of CSS (CSS3) and HTML(HTML5) conventions.
It uses some of the latest browser techniques to provide you with stylish typography, forms, buttons, tables, grids, navigation and everything else you need in a super tiny (only 6k with gzip) resource.

Technologies used in it?
HTML/HTML5, CSS/CSS3, jQuery (but not limited to these J )
  • By nerds, for nerds! Built at Twitter by @mdo and @fat, Bootstrap utilizes LESS CSS, is compiled via Node, and is managed through GitHub to help nerds do awesome stuff on the web.
  • Made for everyone! Bootstrap was made to not only look and behave great in the latest desktop browsers (as well as IE7!), but in tablet and smartphone browsers via responsive CSS as well.
Benefits?
  • A clean and uniform solution to the most common, everyday interface tasks developers come across
  •  Light weight,   Easy & faster development
  • Well tested across OSs & Browsers ( ie6 users please excuse J ) 
I want to try!

YUIDoc JavaScript documentation generator released

Today was the official release of the new YUIDoc JavaScript documentation generator. YUIDoc is a Node.js application that generates API documentation from comments in source, using a syntax similar to tools like Javadoc and Doxygen. YUIDoc is currently powering the API documentation for YUI and has been actively updated over the last year.


YUIDoc provides:
  • Live previews YUIDoc includes a standalone doc server, making it trivial to preview your docs as you write.
  • Modern markup YUIDoc’s generated documentation is an attractive, functional web application with real URLs and graceful fallbacks for spiders and other agents that can’t run JavaScript.
  • Wide language support YUIDoc was originally designed for the YUI project, but it is not tied to any particular library or programming language. You can use it with any language that supports /* */ comment blocks.

See the blog post for more details:
