Shifty is a tweening engine for JavaScript. It is a lightweight library meant to be encapsulated by higher level tools. At its core, Shifty provides:

  • Best-in-class performance
  • Interpolation of Numbers over time (tweening)
  • Playback control of an individual tween
  • Extensibility hooks for key points in the tweening process
  • Promise support for async/await programming

This is useful because it is the least amount of functionality needed to build customizable animations. Shifty is optimized to run many times a second with minimal processing and memory overhead, which is necessary to achieve smooth animations.

import { tween } from 'shifty'
;(async () => {
  const element = document.querySelector('#tweenable')
  const { tweenable } = await tween({
    render: ({ scale, x }) => {

Why EPUB

Why EPUB

The EPUB standard is a widely used and easily convertible format. Many books are currently in this format, and it is convertible to many other formats (such as PDF, Mobi and iBooks).

An unzipped EPUB3 is a collection of HTML5 files, CSS, images and other media โ€“ just like any other website. However, it enforces a schema of book components, which allows us to render a book and its parts based on a controlled vocabulary.

More specifically, the EPUB schema standardizes the table of contents, provides a manifest that enables the cachingโ€ฆ

projen synthesizes project configuration files such as package.json tsconfig.json, .gitignore, GitHub Workflows, eslint, jest, etc from a well-typed definition written in JavaScript.

Check out this talk about projen.

As opposed to existing templating/scaffolding tools, projen is not a one-off generator. Synthesized files should never be manually edited (in fact, projen enforces that). To modify your project setup, users interact with rich strongly-typed class and execute projen to update their project configuration files.

Getting Started

To create a new project, run the following command and follow the instructions:

$ mkdir my-project
$ cd my-project
$ git init
$ npx projen new PROJECT-TYPE

Currently supported project types (use npx projen new without a type for a list):
