The core goal of 30 seconds of code is to provide a quality resource for beginner and advanced JavaScript developers alike. We want to help improve the JavaScript ecosystem, by lowering the barrier of entry for newcomers and help seasoned veterans pick up new tricks and remember old ones. In order to achieve this, we have collected hundreds of snippets that can be of use in a wide range of situations. We welcome new contributors and we like fresh ideas, as long as the code is short and easy to grasp in about 30 seconds. The only catch, if you may, is that many of our snippets are not perfectly suited for large, enterprise applications and they might not be deemed production-ready.

Returns true if the bottom of the page is visible, false otherwise.
Use scrollY, scrollHeight and clientHeight to determine if the bottom of the page is visible.
const bottomVisible = () => + document.documentElement.clientHeight + window.scrollY >= + (document.documentElement.scrollHeight || document.documentElement.clientHeight); +
bottomVisible(); // true +
Creates a function that accepts up to n arguments, ignoring any additional arguments.
Call the provided function, fn, with up to n arguments, using Array.slice(0,n) and the spread operator (...).
const ary = (fn, n) => (...args) => fn(...args.slice(0, n)); +
const firstTwoMax = ary(Math.max, 2); +[[2, 6, 'a'], [8, 4, 6], [10]].map(x => firstTwoMax(...x)); // [6, 8, 10] +
The idea behind 30 seconds of code has inspired some people to create similar collections in other programming languages and environments. Here are the ones we like the most:

-
- Angelos Chalaris
- Run npm run tagger from your terminal, then open the tag_database file and tag your snippet appropriately. Multitagging is also supported, just make sure the first tag you specify is on of the major tags and the one that is most relevant to the implemneted function.

You can optionally test your snippet to make our job easier. Simply run npm run tester to generate the test files for your snippet. Find the related folder for you snippet under the test directory and write some tests. Remember to run npm run tester again to make sure your tests are passing.
If you have done everything mentioned above, you should now have an awesome snippet to add to our collection. Simply start a pull request and follow the guidelines provided. Remember to only submit one snippet per pull request, so that we can quickly evaluate and merge your code into the collection.
-If you need additional pointers about writing a snippet, be sure to read the complete contribution guidelines.
