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 🙏

Flock'n Roll

CC BY 4.0

This explorable illustrates the dynamics of a model for collective behavior in swarms, like flocks of birds, or schools of fish. In the model, a collection of agents move at constants speeds, try to avoid collisions, try to align their heading to the motion of neighbors and are attracted to the swarm.

The explorable is part of the Complexity Exporables Collection. For more information about the system and its behavior consult the explorable

“Flock'n Roll” - Collective Behavior - Schooling Fish & Flocking Birds

Installation & Use

Out of the box you can use the explorable in a basic index.html file like this

<!doctype html>
<html>
	<head>
		<meta charset="utf-8">
		<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width,initial-scale=1">
		<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@explorables/flockn_roll"></script>
	</head>
	<body class="avenir pa3 pa5-ns tj">
	    <div id="explorable_container"></div>
	</body>
	<script type="text/javascript">
		flockn_roll.load("explorable_container")
	</script>
</html>

The header <script> tag loads the bundle, the <div> in the document is the container in which the explorable gets anchored when the function flockn_roll.load() gets executed at the bottom. The load function needs the <div> container id as an argument.
