Trying to understand how Awwwards does their rollover effect with the sites of the day.
When you hover over the thumbnails in the middle section you get information like the date it was submitted, the score it got, and a button to click on to view the site. Trying to replicate something like that but not sure where to start…
You can do all that with simple vanilla javascript. You don’t need jquery at all unless you specifically want to use it. And if the overlays are just images then you don’t need jquery (which is just javascript anyway) or javascript at all and you can do it with just html and css.
You could certainly do that with CSS3 alone, but in this case, there’s a bit of jQuery assistance. I can’t quite see which script is doing it, though. (Too lazy to look through all that bloated code, I’m afraid. )
