Magic

Keep Frontend DRY; sprinkle it with Magic

(we demand to be taken seriously)

All Drupal sites need some magic, so give yours some! Magic is a set of tools for front-end best practices and general front-end goodies to make your life as a front-end developer happier. Features include:

• Enhancements to CSS Aggregation
• Exclude CSS files from being included
• Move JavaScript to the footer
• Backport of Drupal 8 JavaScript handling
• Exclude JS files from being included
• Rebuild Theme Registry on Page Reload
• Display a Viewport Width indicator
• Display an indicator with classes applied to the HTML. Useful when used in conjunction with Modernizr
• Export theme settings

All of these are set on a per-theme basis and exportable on a per-theme basis, meaning they can be used with any Drupal theme.

2.0 Upgrade

Magic 2.0 should work as a standard drop-in upgrade, but always test first to ensure your site is properly working. If there are settings issues, please re-save your theme settings page, which should take care of any issues at hand. Also, clearing caches (cache_magic) is always recommended with an upgrade of Magic.

Good luck, have fun!
