Recent Tabs jQuery Plugin Review
The Recent Tabs jQuery plugin promises to help you create a tab widget for your recent news, articles, or blogs. As a reviewer, I put this plugin to the test to see if it delivers on its promises.
Installation Process
The installation process is relatively straightforward, with a clear and concise guide provided. The instructions are well-organized, and even a beginner can follow them easily.
- Upload the necessary files to your server
- Include jQuery and recent-tabs.js in your template
- Include recent-tabs.css in your template
- Create the HTML markup for the tabs
- Call the plugin to activate it
Files Included and Not Included
The package includes the following files:
- recent-tabs.css (the CSS file for the plugin)
- recent-tabs.js (the JavaScript file for the plugin)
- index.html (a demo file with an installation guide)
However, the plugin does not include:
- Images (which is unusual, as images are typically included in plugins)
- jQuery (you’ll need to have this library included separately)
- Bootstrap (while the demo uses Bootstrap, it’s not included in the package)
Functionality and Performance
As for the plugin’s functionality, it seems to work as expected. The demo provided shows a basic tabs widget with three tabs. However, the plugin only provides a basic structure and doesn’t offer any customization options or advanced features. This might be a letdown for some users.
Conclusion and Score
Overall, I would rate this plugin a 0 out of 5. While the installation process is easy, the lack of included files and customization options makes it less useful for most users. Additionally, the demo relies on external libraries (Bootstrap and jQuery), which adds to the complexity of implementation.
I would recommend users to explore other options that offer more comprehensive features and better file inclusion.
