Medium like lightbox plugin, gradient generator and Sketch calendar plugin – Design round up #3

Hi and welcome to our design links roundup for this week!

MediumLightbox

Our first link is a new lightbox plugin inspired by the really nice lightbox functionality you can find over at Medium. The plugin developed by Davide Calignano is entirely written in vanilla JavaScript, which will ensure better performances and no dependencies required. The plugin works on mobile and is only 5kb (not minified).

Grabient

Everyone love gradients and we are always looking for new tool and resources to create them. Grabient is a nicely designed gradient generator created by Unfold with a couple of power features like the ability to download the gradient’s Sketch file and a quick CSS code generator.

Calendar generator plugin for sketch

The last link of this roundup is a really powerful plugin for Sketch that helps you to create calendar UIs in a really smart way. The plugin is based on symbols so you can easily manipulate all the elements generated.

That’s it for this week; come back next friday for more design links, or check back on monday for another development roundup!
