Description:

A pure Vanilla JavaScript library to create modal windows that use CSS3 for awesome modal open/close animations.

How to use it:

Download and put the modal.js into your project.

<script src='modal.js'></script>

Create a toggle button to launch a modal window.

<button id="launchModalButton" type="button">Launch Modal</button>

Initialize the modal window with custom content.

var myModal = new Modal({
  content: 'Modal Content'
  // More settings here
});
var launchModal = document.getElementById('launchModalButton');
launchModal.addEventListener('click', function() {
  myModal.open();
});
