What Hacker News says
3 sourcesGood similar libs on github :
https://github.com/zurb/joyride
https://github.com/heelhook/chardin.js
https://github.com/linkedin/hopscotch
https://github.com/sorich87/bootstrap-tour
https://github.com/HubSpot/shepherd
https://github.com/usablica/intro.js
Once I had a requirement and ended up trying nearly all of them and unfortunately, had to write my own (took about a day and a half) that accomplished the tour exactly the way I wanted. Off the top of my head, I can't recall what each of them missed but primary reason was that often they take off with a great experience and then the lead developer can't devote enough time to meet the diverse requirements of a huge community. The library ends up with a huge user base with lots of open issues, some critical to the user experience on the myriad of mobile devices.
In Show HN: Intro.js HintsI just create a patch for that https://github.com/heelhook/chardin.js/pull/2
In Show HN: Chardin.js, beautiful instructions for apps
