3. Bulma
   Bulma is a front-end framework that contains some common UI Web components such as navigation, drop-down menus, and grids built entirely on Flexbox.

5. OkayNav
   OkayNav is a jQuery plugin for creating responsive navigation. It has a unique perspective on responsive design: When the viewport becomes smaller, each menu item is gradually merged into an icon to accommodate the limited viewport size. This sounds cool, right? (The picture is too big, please imagine it yourself)

9. Mo.js
   Mo.js is a complete JavaScript animation library package. It comes with multiple presets, allowing you to quickly set and run animations.
