Adapt.js is a lightweight JavaScript file that determines which CSS file to load before the browser renders the page. In case the browser tilts of resizes, the script checks its width and loads the needed CSS file accordingly. If JavaScript is disabled default stylesheets can be served via <noscript> which is valid in the HEAD of HTML5.

Alternatives include: Build a separate site for mobile. Or, use media queries to adjust layout, with a polyfill for older browser support, and conditional Internet Explorer comments for Windows phones. Also a factor is how to handle multiple image resolutions without adding file size. Filament Group is advocating context aware image sizing.

Developed by Daniel Raftery, Apprise is a very simple, fast, attractive, and unobtrusive way to communicate with your users, giving you a complete control over style, content, position, and functionality. Apprise is, more or less, for the developers looking for an attractive alert or dialog box without having to download a massive UI framework. The customization is done via CSS (apprise.css) in order to adjust the look and the feel.

Options include:
{
'confirm' : false, // Ok and Cancel buttons
'verify' : false, // Yes and No buttons
'input' : false, // Text input (can be true or string for default text)
'animate' : false, // Groovy animation (can true or number, default is 400)
'textOk' : 'Ok', // Ok button default text
'textCancel' : 'Cancel', // Cancel button default text
'textYes' : 'Yes', // Yes button default text
'textNo' : 'No' // No button default text
}

I am sure you often need to make quick changes to your CSS and JavaScript files and connecting to the FTP, downloading, editing and re-uploading the files again to the server is a time consuming process.

Live.js is meant to make this process shorter by making sure you are always looking at the latest version of the page you’re working on whether is an HTML, CSS or JavaScript file. You just need to include the script and it will monitor the current page you’re working on by sending consecutive HEAD requests to the server. Changes to CSS will be applied dynamically and HTML or Javascript changes will reload the page.

Live.js works in Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera and IE6+ until proven otherwise. Live.js is independent of the development framework or language you use, whether it be Ruby, Handcraft, Python, Django, NET, Java, Php, Drupal, Joomla or what-have-you.

Live.js was written by Martin Kool as the next step in Handcraft’s design in the browser strategy. But similar to when we open sourced Backfire (which allows you to save CSS changes made with Firebug) it seemed natural to once again share the code.

PS: Make sure you protect the page where you make the changes ;-)

All these extremely colorful icons are available in 32px (best to use while designing websites or apps). But if you need bigger icons, there is a 128px package included.

Features include:

• Available in 2 sizes: While designing websites or apps, the 32px size is the one that we use the most. But the package also includes 128px icons, just in case you need bigger icons.

There’s a lot of free icon sets containing modern, shiny icons. Servers, hard disks, consoles, globes, speakers, LCD screens, etc. But what about good old times?
