Once again, I’ve gathered some jQuery plugin goodies that are really great and useful. This is for you to have a great experience of using jQuery and learn how to use them properly as well.
So here they are:
1. Sliding Panel
In this plugin, you’ll have a sliding panel that slides to reveal its content. Of course, jQuery is used to make an easing and great animation to animate the height of the panel.

6. Slick Auto-Playing Slider
This plugin is very useful for displaying lots of content in a very small area. It cycles through panels slowly and auto-plays different kinds of content, it also has an arrow indicator that serves as a visual indicator of which panel you’re currently on.

7. FancyBox
This is a cool plugin that automatically scales images to fit in windows even if they are large. It has nice drop-shadow effect under the item that is zoomed. It can group items that are relevant to each other and can add navigation between them.
