  • Release: Moostick 1.0

    Moostick is my take on a Mootools-powered, unobtrusive, Javascript news ticker library.

    Moostick will take in any type of <li> container (<ul>, <ol>…) and turn it into an animated news ticker, fading between each entry at a set interval.

    This project is an experiment in mootoology. Quite arguably over-engineered for its core purpose, I use it to hone my MooTools skills while trying to still provide a fun and stable tool for others to use.

    The unobtrusiveness aspect of the project is key in keeping the content accessible when pages are loaded without Javascript and/or CSS, whether by users or machines, and is one of Moostick’s top goals.

    See the project page for more information.

  • New MooTools-related section and repository

    Since we’ve committed to MooTools for our RIA and AJAX development needs in the McGill WPS, I’ve been using it on my recently released personal site as well, so I can experiment outside of work but still try to gain from it professionally.

    Therefore, I just opened a new section and repository under tekartist.org to feature little projects I plan to release publicly, as FOSS, for people to download, use, comment on and modify as they please.

    You can currently only find more information about my source repository, but I will release a little project I’ve been toying with shortly, after I document it properly.
