Les différences entre les plug-ins d'isotopes et la maçonnerie jQuery [fermée]

Question

J'ai récemment découvert le Maçonnerie et Isotope JQuery plugins. Ils semblent être fonctionnellement presque identique et les deux semblent avoir le même auteur. La seule différence évidente est que je peux voir la licence.

Quelles sont les principales différences entre ces deux en termes de fonctionnalité? Pourquoi voudriez-vous utiliser un sur l'autre?

Answer 1

An excerpt from the interview with the author:

To some people Isotope would look very similar to the work you had previously done with Masonry; can you explain the main differences between the two?

Isotope has several features that Masonry lacks. Masonry essentially does one thing, placing item elements in a cascading arrangement. Isotope has Masonry’s layout logic built in, but in addition, it also has several other layout modes that can be used to dynamically position elements. You can even develop your own custom layout mode.

As I’ve mentioned, it has filtering and sorting functionality built in. Filtering items is as easy as passing in a jQuery selector:

$('#container').isotope({ filter: '.my-selector' });

Isotope takes advantage of the best browser features out there. Instead of using typical left/top styles positioning, Isotope takes a progressive enhancement approach and uses CSS transforms if supported by the browser. This provides for top-notch performance for top-notch browsers. With hardware acceleration kicking in, animations look silky smooth on WebKit browsers, and even less-powerful devices using iOS. CSS transforms perform better with CSS transitions, which I’ll discuss later.

Another difference is license as @AminAriana pointed out. Masonry is under the MIT license, but Isotope is only free for personal use.

You can buy (25$) Isotope commercial license on this page.

Answer 2

PrimosK pretty much answared you question, but I just wanted to chime in ...

Isotope is an awesome jQuery plugin. I've successfully used it on multiple sites.

One of the things I like most about Isotope is how customizable it is. It's well documented and it can do almost anything you can think of like extending it with infinite scroll and use custom layout modes.
