I Don’t Like [Django] Class Based Generic View
John DeRosa has written a blog post detailing why he does not like class based generic views (which were introduced in Django 1.3). He is of the opinion that generic views should be very simple and require a minimal amount of code to use. Class based generic views require you to subclass the generic view and override particular methods and properties (such the name of the template). This is in contrast to the old “function style” generic views where all you needed to do was call method and pass in the appropriate parameters.
jQAPI.com
The jQuery documentation is great, very complete, nicely written and with a lot of examples and demos. The only thing that bugs me is the way we have to find the right documentation for what we search for. Try to search for the .is() function for example. Over 100 matches before the actual function I am looking for?! And it is a fixed layout which means even on my big screen I have to scroll all the way down and have to scan for it. There have to be a better way, obviously.
Just to make it clear, I only coded the navigation and re-styled the documentation. The content is the same as in the official documentation and all credits belong to the jQuery team. Keep up the great work!

Heatmap.js
Heatmap.js is an open source JavaScript library written by Patrick Wied that can be used to generate web heatmaps. “Heatmap instances contain a store in order to colorize the heatmap based on relative data, which means if you’re adding only a single datapoint to the store it will be displayed as the hottest(red) spot, then adding another point with a higher count, it will dynamically recalculate”. Heatmap.js is a standalone library (it doesn’t rely on any frameworks).
