Avgrund is a lightweight (~1Kb) jQuery plugin for modal boxes and popups that uses a depth-based animation concept between the popup and the page. It works in all modern browsers and gracefully degrades where CSS transitions and transformations are unsupported.

Use cases

• show modal dialogs with depth animation in a jquery app
• create lightweight popups without a big ui library
• add blur and stack animation effects to modal overlays
• close modals by escape key or clicking the document
• trigger popups on custom events like mouseover or touchmove

When to choose

• you already use jQuery and need a tiny modal plugin
• you want a distinctive depth/blur animation for popups
• you need graceful degradation in older browsers

When to avoid

• you use a modern framework like React or Vue with its own modal ecosystem
• you need accessible, actively maintained modal solutions
• your project no longer depends on jQuery
