We also noticed these two libraries that caught our attention as well, TypeIt & StickerJs .

11 Minimal JavaScript Frameworks You Need To Know

For web developers, JavaScript frameworks are useful tools for making development streamlined and quick to implement.

Create Exit Intent Popup With Ouibounce.js

Exit intent is a very popular mechanism implemented on websites or landing pages to get leads and users, who would otherwise never return to the site by presenting them with attractive offers or a very simple, direct call-to-action to give a sense of urgency. Exit intent technology functions by observing mouse gestures, the speed of the mouse, the location of the mouse, and whether or not it breaks the plane of the browser to predict whether or not your intent is to leave the website, and this is what Ouibounce.js does behind the scene. This standalone JS library is the creation of Carl Sednaoui and comes with configurable options such as sensitivity, cookie duration and timer. Hit the buttons below to learn more about Ouibounce.js exit intent popup.
