Yeah but it works with jQuery. What if I don't want to add jQuery to my page? IntroJs built with pure JavaScript.


Sure, if you don't want to have jQuery as a dependency intro.js is probably the winner.

However, do note that Foundation's javascript plugins also work with Zepto[1][2] which weighs in at under 10k gzipped.

I think the work done here is fansastic and presents a great alternative to the zurb joyride / jquery or zepto combination. I agree with some of the other comments about the usability on an ipad and mobile device as well as scrolling the screen to the focused element. I think larger targets would really help with this.

At this point in its development, if you are able to use jQuery or Zepto I think that Joyride 2 offers a much better UI / UX especially if you are planning to use Foundation 3/4.


I'm also agree with you about the size of `next` and `skip` button. I'll fix it asap.


I was about to post this link myself. I'm not quite sure which one is better.

I tend to like the Intro.js page fade animation. Although JoyRide 2 actually scrolls to the highlighted object, whereas intro.js does not.
