If you are willing to contribute any commit for Trip.js, please use mentioned tools above to finish the whole build process to make the codebase consistent.

Thanks !

Key Binding

Trip.js would detect following keys to do relative actions after loading it.

API

• trip.start() - start your trip
• trip.stop() - stop your trip
• trip.pause() - pause / resume your trip ( same as trip.resume() )
• trip.resume() - pause / resume your trip ( same as trip.pasue() )
• trip.next() - jump to next step
• trip.prev() - jump back to previous step

TODO

• Add data-x to define steps ( make the setup easier )
• Add UI for pause/play/stop to make users know how to interact
• Don't depend on jQuery
