Tooltipster is a flexible and extensible jQuery plugin for creating modern tooltips. It supports theming, animations, HTML content, touch devices, and a plugin architecture for extending behavior.

Use cases

  • add tooltips to html elements
  • show rich html content on hover
  • customize tooltip position and animation
  • support tooltips on touch devices
  • theme tooltips with css

When to choose

  • your project already uses jQuery
  • you need highly customizable, extensible tooltips
  • you need legacy browser support like IE6+

When to avoid

  • you are building a modern framework app without jQuery
  • you need a dependency-free vanilla JS tooltip solution
