Focus.js

Focus.js is a replacement for CSS (and even HTML) in web development.

It is a series of JavaScript functions that are using DOM to manipulate HTML element color, position, dimension, and more.

Traditional web development needs more than 3 programming skills to write a single website:html, javascript, and CSS (+ many libraries/frameworks).

The easier approach is to focus on javascript which is more capable and easier.

Js is able to produce and manipulate the HTML elements Using its DOM Class.

In this way, your efforts will be more effective. Focus.js is the answer to such a need.

Focus.js is a framework for making coding and debugging web development much more straightforward, by focusing on one skill instead of 3.

It generates Html DOM elements dynamically on the fly. So you even don't need to have any html code!

Key concepts

Layout Generation

When you use Focus.js functions, It generates Html elements dynamically on the fly.

For example when you write:

  Layout.RadioBoxes("Choose one: ",["Conventinal","none-conventional"]);

it generates these codes dynamically on the fly :

<div>
  <p> Type </p>
  <input  name='rb1' type='radio'  />Conventinal</input>
  <input  name='rb2' type='radio'  />none-Conventinal</input>
</div>

Using Focus.js elements inside your HTML:

For example to insert a radio button inside div2

<div id="div1">
  <script src='mysrc1.js'></script>
</div>
<div id="div2">
  <script src='mysrc2.js'></script>
</div>

//mysrc2.js
const parentElement = document.currentScript.parentNode;

Layout.RadioBoxes(parentElement,"Choose one: ",["Conventinal","none-conventional"]);

Demo

There are two demos for two editions of NodeJs and local edition:

1- In \Demo -NodeJs\ folder: for server side version 2- In \Demo -local\ folder : for local usage
