Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Server-side AppPort protocol runtime with HTTP and WebSocket bindings.

Readme

@appport/server

The server-side protocol runtime and its web bindings.

import { createServer } from "@appport/server";
import { serve } from "@appport/server/node";

const server = createServer({
  application,
  authenticate: ({ sessionId }) => sessions.resolve(sessionId)
});

const running = await serve({ server, port: 4400, cors: { origins: "*" } });

serve exposes, against one capability server:

| Route | Purpose | | ------------------------ | --------------------------------------- | | POST /appport | requests, and streams as NDJSON | | GET /appport/events | events as Server-Sent Events | | GET /appport/manifest | the manifest | | GET /.well-known/appport | discovery | | WS /appport/ws | the WebSocket binding |

The WebSocket endpoint is a dependency-free RFC 6455 implementation: framing, fragmentation, ping/pong and close, with one AppPort envelope per message.

AppPortConnection is the duplex half used by WebSocket, IPC and in-process transports. It owns subscription and stream bookkeeping, so unsubscribe releases resources and cancellation reaches the handler.

For edge runtimes, createFetchHandler(binding) returns a standard (Request) => Promise<Response>.

authenticate resolves an identity from transport-supplied credentials. AppPort does not authenticate; it represents the resulting identity, and authorizes every capability regardless of which transport delivered it.
