JavaScript Library For Guiding Users: Guiders.js
For any website/web application that expects an action from its visitors (like "filling a form" or "making a selection") or help them browse the way required, offering an online guide can be a good idea.
Guiders.js, a JavaScript library developed and used by the popular A/B testing service Optimizely, is recently open sourced and enables us to create flexible guiders.
The guiders are in the form of a dialog box, they can be attached to an element or centered on their own and positioned however we want.
Custom event handlers can be used to hide and show guiders. This makes interactively showing the user how to use your software by having them complete steps possible.
It requires jQuery and very easy to setup by simply creating the list of guiders, ordering them and attaching the events we want to each.
