Chardin.js is a jQuery plugin that displays simple overlay instructions on top of existing app elements, inspired by Gmail's composer tour. Elements are annotated with data attributes for tooltip text and positioning, with support for sequential stepping through instructions.
Use cases
- add a guided product tour to my web app
- show onboarding tooltips over existing UI elements
- create a step-by-step overlay walkthrough like Gmail's tour
- highlight page elements with instructional overlays
- run a sequenced feature tour with auto-advance delays
When to choose
- your app already uses jQuery and you need lightweight onboarding overlays
- you want a simple, declarative data-attribute-based product tour
- you need sequential stepping through instructions with minimal setup
When to avoid
- your project does not use jQuery
- you need advanced tour features like routing, modals, or analytics integrations
- you want a framework-native solution for React, Vue, or Angular
