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 🙏

Published

REX is a tool that takes your JavaScript source files and serves a bundle that you deploy to clients.

Readme

REX Build Status

REX is a tool that takes your JavaScript source files and serves a bundle that you deploy to clients. It is a standalone version of the packager included with React Native. If you need a JavaScript packager without the rest of React Native, this is your tool.

Collaborating

We welcome collaborators, especially if you're interested in building tools that keep this repository in sync with the upstream React Native project.

Tasks we need help on:

  • Writing a little Node bot that is pinged whenever there is a commit to the upstream React Native repo
  • Checking if that commit touches any of the files or directories of interest to REX
    • This would be the jestSupport and packager directories for now
  • Create a new commit that pulls over just the relevant changes
    • We don't care about non-packager code
    • Preserve details about the original author
    • Include a link to the original PR and commit in case a person needs to look it over
  • Automatically submit a PR with the commit
  • Automatically merge the PR if Travis CI tests pass
  • If tests fail we need a way for a person to take over a PR
    • Document that process for collaborators

Please open up an issue if you start working on one of these so that we can efficiently work together.

License

The packager is derived from the React Native project. It's license and patent grants are included in this repository. There is also a BSD license for code that is not from React Native.
