This New JavaScript Library Lets You Make Annotations Across Platforms

A person shared a link to an article that offers a small JavaScript library that creates and animates annotations on a web page. This library could be used to make annotations on code, a term paper or just about anything else, such as a book proposal that needs to be submitted online and returned to the author with an editor's notes. The library includes common editorial techniques, including underlining, circling, boxing, highlighting, strike-through and cross-off.

The library can be customized to the user's preferences. For example, circling can be set to a specific color, and boxing set to a different color. For people who are sensitive to editing made with a traditional red pen, a color such as blue or orange may be less jarring. The user can also change the stroke width and duration of the animation.

The person who shared this JavaScript library wanted to know what other designers thought about it and whether or not they would use it. One person commented that they thought they knew about all of the style libraries available for JavaScript, and now another one pops up that they will want to use. Another individual noted that the style was helpful and they would use it as soon as the need arises.

Many people noted that they liked it. They thought the animations were just the right pace and size. These people said they would use it as soon as the first situation comes up. A few people said they thought it was interesting, but their particular line of work made them think they would not need an animated editing library.

A couple of commentators discussed the animation being a cool idea, but they were not clear on its purpose. A vast majority of people who took a look at this JavaScript library said that they liked it and could see at least one instance in which they would use it for their design work. This could also be useful for an instructor, teacher or professor, but not all of those people know how to make use of a JavaScript animation library.
