[Plugin Screenshots] To Do List
« le 27 Mars 2012 à 12:06 »
Lately I have been working on a plugin[1] that allows you to create list items of things to do. Think of an electronic grocery list. That's what this is.

Isn't finished, though. I have plenty of ideas for this plugin. Limiting visibility to certain groups is one of hem.

The calendar widget is from jQuery UI's Date picker widget, modified to fit this application.

It's clear that the new Wedge plugin system is pushing many people to create new plugins!! :D

What isn't so obvious is how clean the process is; you don't spend any time on hunting down code to find/replace.

But one other thing: this is the *single best way* to find holes in the plugin system, and where it needs expansion.

I actually spent more time fighting the jq-ui widget than I did writing the first draft of the plugin. :P

Because it's quite the rat's nest?

Pretty much all jQuery plugins of any kind are rat's-nests from what I've seen... ;)

Yeah... seems like whenever I find a good plugin I end up throwing it away because of the code :(

Pretty much. The only exceptions for generally-available ones tend to be the 'official' jQuery UI plugins, but even those can be a royal PITA to work with.

Rewrote its shortcodes, also added that if a date was manually entered, update the widget.

Down to 7.5 KB,  removed the core UI dependency. Not gonna get much smaller without a complete rewrite.

I forgot jq-tools had one. I'll work on that instead/ Mental note: stock file is 3.5 KB minified and gzipped.
