## What it is
Tingle is a lightweight (2kB) vanilla JavaScript modal plugin with no dependencies. It offers a simple API, CSS transitions, and full customization via CSS.

## Use cases

- build accessible modal popups in pure JavaScript

## When to choose

## When to avoid
- you need a full UI component library with many widgets
- you require advanced accessibility features out of the box
- your project already uses a framework with its own modal system
