Developers in need of a solution for sharing background across multiple elements using CSS
About Multiple.js
An experiment in sharing background across multiple elements using CSS. If you want to accomplish a "background sharing across multiple elements" effect in HTML/CSS without any coordinates processing by JavaScript, Multiple.js is the answer. Note that icons and text at lighter layers have gradient-color from darker layers, creating the illusion of an underlying violet layer. In addition to that, layers pass the background image (girl) with equal transparency so that layers can not be superimposed on each other. All these things can be implemented in CSS. Add a gap between elements to make sure that the background remains in the same position. Toggle background image/gradient to get idea how it looks. Miss random layers to make sure that elements are independent. Expands background to viewport's size and displays in every element appropriate chunk, exactly what is needed! Background can be successfully expanded to full viewport size.

Popper
Positioning tooltips and popovers are difficult. Popper is here to help! Given an element, such as a button, and a tooltip element describing it, Popper will automatically put the tooltip in the right place near the button. It will position any UI element that "pops out" from the flow of your document and floats near a target element. The most common example is a tooltip, but it also includes popovers, drop-downs, and more. All of these can be generically described as a "popper" element. Click on the dots to place the tooltip. There are 12 different placements to choose from. Pure CSS poppers will not be prevented from overflowing clipping boundaries, such as the viewport. It will get partially cut off or overflows if it's near the edge since there is no dynamic positioning logic. When using Popper, your popper will always be positioned in the right place without needing manual adjustments.

Bideo.js
Bideo.js is a JS library that makes it super easy to add fullscreen background videos. Fullscreen HTML5 background video for the web. Want to play a video in the background of a container or body itself? This plugin will help you do exactly that. The video element in use will automatically adapt to the container's dimensions. It will also resize as the browser window resizes. The plugin doesn't support any overlay as it is easy to implement that with plain HTML/CSS in your code. Video might take a few seconds to load, especially because the sources are added via JS which is something you'll load after the DOM's loading. Until then, you may want to show a video cover, which will be the same as the first frame or the video (or some other image). The support for this is not in the plugin as it's fairly simple to achieve this via just HTML/CSS (just like overlays).
