tooltipper v1.1.6

Tooltipper

A lightweight (1kB) JavaScript library for implementing tooltips.

Installation

Install via NPM:

npm i -S tooltipper

Install via CDN:

<script type="module" src="https://unpkg.com/tooltipper@1/tooltipper.min.mjs"></script>
<script defer src="https://unpkg.com/tooltipper@1/tooltipper.min.js"></script>

Usage

Create tooltips using the tooltip attribute:

<a href="#" tooltip="Edit file">
    <svg />
</a>

Create tooltips by adding the tooltip attribute to an element with an aria-label attribute:

<a href="#" aria-label="Edit file" tooltip>
    <svg />
</a>

Please note that tooltipper is an unopinionated library. All we aim to do is create, track, and remove custom <tool-tip> elements within the DOM. You are responsible for providing the CSS.
