featured image

Spectrum is a superb JavaScript gallery plugin, which will work with jQuery, as an AMD Module or a browser global. It has support for image cropping, true to proportion image gallery CSS and perfect image alignment.It is perfect for portfolio and gallery website design along with its smooth transitions. Is there an image animation style that is missing? No problem. You could extend the image method library by adding your own methods, which could, lets say, rotate an image as it slides into position. Setting up straight away is ridiculously easy, almost every option has a default, the only thing you would need to do is supply the images, and the parent element to which the gallery is appended to. And i mean minimal, the only piece of image gallery HTML code required to make spectrum work is a single tag, that being the element on which to create the gallery. All the little things like gallery and image creation is handled by the plugin, you only have to specify the url for each image. What you will be left with is a beautiful gallery which fits perfectly all its images. Spectrum can handle multiple tags being searched at the same time, it can also do other magic with tags, such as add an “all” tag, which can also be any text you desire, you can also tell Spectrum which tag to start the gallery on. Also Spectrum can map to the size of its parent element, so if you have implemented responsive design, whenever a different device views the page, the gallery will change size if its parent element changes size. Be it using new curves, image specific animation, or entire compositions that orchestrate the moment of the gallery. It comes as an jQuery plugin, AMD module or a browser global.Gallery Cover –

Spectrum has cool gallery cover option, which allows you to use a single image, as the cover of the gallery. This can be useful when used as a loading screen whilst your gallery images load in the background, and can be set to swipe away as soon as they have loaded.Image Binding

Spectrum has an api which allows you to bind to any kind of event that may happen on any of the gallery images.
