Preface
Instant jQuery Boilerplate for Plugins is a guide to getting started with writing your first jQuery plugin. We will explore the different options available, offer a full breakdown of what jQuery Boilerplate has to offer, and then go through several tutorials to get you comfortable with writing a plugin. Once you have got to grips with writing your plugin, we will finally explore how you can go about making your own plugin and making it available as an open source project.

Getting started with your first plugin (Simple) will get us started with writing our first plugin. We will write a simple plugin that swaps the shape that is shown on the page.
Creating a simple JSON reader (Simple) looks at creating a JSON reader that reads your tweets from Twitter and displays them on the page.
jQuery Hover panels with jQuery Boilerplate (Simple) explores creating a plugin that allows users to hover over a panel to reveal alternative content.
Writing a carousel with jQuery Boilerplate (Intermediate) explores how we go about writing a carousel jQuery plugin.
AJAX bookshelves with jQuery Boilerplate (Advanced) explains how to build an AJAX bookshelf that imports a JSON feed and then builds the HTML to create a pull-out bookshelf.
