jQuery TourBus is a jQuery tour/walkthrough plugin. It takes more of a toolkit approach than some of the alternatives that try to have focusing elements, auto-progress with timers and indicators and etc.
Start by including the jQuery plugin and base styles on your page, of course. Then we can define some ‘legs’ of our tour. Imagine you have a page with some stuff you want to lead the user through. You’ll find the basics of the leg styles (padding, background color, etc) which you can either edit or override in your own stylesheets.
Requirements: jQuery Framework

PopEasy is a light weight jQuery plugin that is a must have for any developer to easily create modal windows. Put focus on important elements by applying a mask to your page and opening a customizable pop up modal window.
To use multiple modals on one page, you must sync the href attribute of the trigger to the id of the div you wish to open. This works the same with transitioning from one open modal to another. Just place a link in the modal you wish to leave with an href attribute matching the id of the next modal.

FlipClock.js was created because the other solutions weren’t abstract enough to provide a deep level of customization without rewriting the code. Some libraries have a huge cascade of conditionals, while others simply hard-code too much into their scripts.
After reviewing as many of the existing solutions as possible, it was determined a proper extendible API needed to be written to create any kind of clock or counter (and the flip effect is just cool). You can use FlipClick.js as a clock, timer or countdown.

Codrops has shared a tutorial: Responsive Retina-ready Menu that teach us how to 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 use an icon font so that the icons of the menu won’t get pixelized on resize.

Magnific Popup is a free responsive jQuery lightbox plugin that is focused on performance and providing best experience for user with any device. The majority of lightbox plugins require you to define size of it via JS option. Magnific Popup does not – you can use relative units like EM’s or resize lightbox with help of CSS media queries. Update content inside lightbox without worrying about how it’ll resize and center.
Plugin has an option to automatically switch to alternative mobile-friendly source on small screen size. Default controls are made with pure CSS, without external graphics. For the main image there is a built in way to provide appropriate source for different pixel density displays. Magnific Popup displays images before they’re completely loaded to take full advantage of progressive loading. For in and out transitions CSS3 is used instead of slow JavaScript animation.
