Since technology is evolving constantly, users usually need help getting acquainted with new UI and UX patterns.
In these cases, developers will use a presentational tool like the TourTip jQuery plugin, a combination between classical tooltips and an overlay highlight plugin, showing small tooltips next to a page section, while also dimming out the rest of the page and highlighting the selected element.
This technique can be used to bring in more focus to desired page options and features, but it can also be used to present advanced documentation as well, in a more interactive, eye-catching, and user friendly way.
TourTip is extremely well built, coming with lots of controls that allow developers to dynamically add or remove tooltips whenever they want to, use custom CSS, add next/prev tour step buttons, automatically advance the presentation, load content via AJAX, use simple animation routines, and many other more.
Requirements:
- JavaScript enabled on client side
- jQuery 1.9.1 or higher
