Ever found yourself stuck in a mall waiting and you noticed an interactive digital directory to toy with?

We’ve found ourselves doing the exact same thing.

Codrops has come out with an attractive Interactive 3D Mall Map. We fell in love with this immediately due to it’s clean visuals and smooth transitions, definitely something to take a look at.

Ink Transition Effect

Transitions maketh Interaction. Any website or mobile application without any transition would seem dull. The complexity of transitions can be as simple as a fade-in effect to something complex like the Call of Duty: Ghost loading UI Interface .

It’s useful for flagging issues or labeling certain areas of code so that yourself and other developers will know what’s going on with the code. It is not uncommon for developers to inherit someone else’ code from years before. This article will test how well you’ve been commenting thus far.
