I wonder what the difference is with Tether
There are several advantages:
- The size is half of Tether (3.5 vs 7);
- Popper.js doesn't need any additional CSS in your page;
- It works even with elements not placed as direct children of body;
- It's much much faster (compare both on mobile, you'll see Tether lagging a lot!);
- It automatically detects the size of the tooltip arrow;
- Inside Popper.js you already have a way to create tooltip elements automatically, with Tether you need an additional library;
- Popper.js supports particular "flip" behaviors, you can decide that if there's not space on the left, the tooltip must move on the bottom (for example);
- The whole code is fully documented with JSDoc!
I hope this answers your question
Awesome work, by the way.
When I talk about engines, I mean things like Zynga's Scroller (https://github.com/zynga/scroller), essentially a purely logical set of functionality that doesn't assume a particular view-level implementation.
Huula does solve the problem the user is facing, so by any means, this is not spam at all.
And BTW, we are targeting different segments. You want to serve developers, I want to serve non-tech person, like HRs, Operations, etc. So technically, we are not competitors!
