"A little plugin that does well a single functionality"

4/5

What do you like best about Fittext.Js?

It's a nice little utility that removes the guesswork out of sizing textual headings in webpages if you need them to inflate to fit a specific container. So it's very good for responsive web design where you have this particular need and don't want to fiddle endlessly with viewport width CSS units, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fittext.Js?

Actually there's nothing to dislike in this script, if you need this particular headline design. There are a few caveats (pay particular attention if you're using carousels or other elements that use display:none and hide the text before Fittext Js is applied because that won't work unless you instance it before hiding the element).

Recommendations to others considering Fittext.Js:

If you need a jQuery plugin that removes the guesswork out of sizing headlines to a parent container, Fittext fits the bill :). If on the other hand you prefer using a pure CSS solution, you may be better served by sizing with CSS vw units instead. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Fittext.Js solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are removing the guesswork out of fitting a headline text to a container when the web design we are implementing needs this.Instead of trying to find perfect values in CSS or use the vw units, we just instantiate Fittext.js and it does its job almost automatically.
