Plugins

The plugins site is currently in development.

We've been looking to provide a higher-quality, spam-free experience at the plugins site for some time, and a major error on our part forced us to shut down the current site before we could put the new one in place. We are developing a new site, and you can follow along with its development on GitHub. For more information about this transition, including steps you can take as a plugin author to prepare, please read our post about what's going on.

Swagg Player

Swagg Player is an embeddable music player built using javascript. The sound API (soundManager) is a javascript API which uses Flash Action Script under the hood. Swagg Player is easily configurable using an XML file which holds information about the songs. Swagg Player also uses album art. When the user skips to the next or previous song, there is a nifty transition animation. Future versions of Swagg Player will allow for even easier customization, HTML5 audio driven, playlist capabilities, the option for no album art. There are a lot of music players out there and they work well. Swagg Player is a minimalist music player - bringing functionality without too many bells and whistles.

The first thing you're going to want to do is import all dependencies followed by the jquery-swaggplayer.js
