But now I realize these things should also be collected to a list somewhere. I linked your project in mine for starters. Thanks for sharing! Cheers!

It might still catch on on https://neocities.org/

You're the one who is rad! Thanks for sharing this Christmas gift! :)
(also, I love neocities. Happily donate to it and using it unironically for sharing small things)
I have been looking for these kinds of things! A month ago I started building a similar project: http://dsalaj.com/quirky-ux/ But now I realize these things should also be collected to a list somewhere. I linked your project in mine for starters. Thanks for sharing! Cheers!
Like an awesome list? What should it be called? awesome-oldschool maybe?

tl;dr ...websites with a lots of character which break best practice guidelines and design rules are able to capture audience better and produce better results (turnover, traffic, user retention, etc.)
So I ended up finding a neutral sounding word: QUIRKY - having or characterized by peculiar or unexpected traits or aspects.
I would gladly reformat quirky-ux to be primarely this collestion/list of quirky stuff, but maybe awesome-quirky makes more sense or awesome-quirky-ui or something similar...

Well... I've been thinking a lot about this terminology. On one hand it is useless/oldschool/ugly/trash/weird kind of effect, but on the other hand it can be extremely effective (like described in motivation of my quirky-ux (see talk by Vitaly Friedman of smashingmagazine)). tl;dr ...websites with a lots of character which break best practice guidelines and design rules are able to capture audience better and produce…

Quirky sounds apt. How about awesome-quirksmode as a historical reference? :P
Please contribute! If you really prefer the name awesome-quirksmode I have no problem with renaming the repo or adding you as a contributor so you can do it. Thanks for the feedback!
move these things into initWiv() and cache them: var speed = parseFloat(wivCurve.parentNode.dataset.wivSpeed) var height = parseFloat(wivCurve.parentNode.dataset.wivHeight) var tightness = parseFloat(wivCurve.parentNode.dataset.wivTightness) var thickness = parseFloat(wivCurve.parentNode.dataset.wivThickness) var ctx = wivCurve.getContext("2d"); do this once on init, the canvas context remembers it anyway: ctx.stroke…
Thank you for the thoughtful code review. It is already running smoother https://github.com/jjkaufman/wiv.js/pull/5 if you are curious

Cool. I would say awesome-quirks sounds a bit better and also avoids the confusion with the meaning of quirks mode, the compatibility feature of browsers.
