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 🙏

v0.5.1

Published

Shared frontend utilities for GitLab

Readme

@gitlab/frontend-utils

Shared frontend utilities extracted from the GitLab monolith. Pure JavaScript functions with no coupling to Rails, Vue, or domain-specific code.

Installation

pnpm add @gitlab/frontend-utils

Usage

import { joinPaths, queryToObject } from '@gitlab/frontend-utils';

Functions that originally relied on browser globals (window.gon, window.location) accept optional parameters for injection, so they work both in the monolith (where globals exist) and standalone.

Development

pnpm install
pnpm test
pnpm build
pnpm lint

Adding a utility

  1. Add your module under src/.
  2. Co-locate tests as *.test.js next to the source.
  3. Re-export the public API from src/index.js.
  4. Update the monolith import to consume from this package, leaving a re-export shim in lib/utils/ during migration.

Publishing

The package is published to the public npm registry (registry.npmjs.org), not the GitLab package registry. Publishing uses npm trusted publishing with OIDC, so no npm token is stored in CI, and every version carries a provenance attestation.

To release, push a tag vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH on main, for example v0.6.0. The tag pipeline sets version in package.json from the tag and publishes. Prerelease tags such as v0.6.0-rc.1 publish to the next dist-tag, so they do not replace latest. The tag message becomes the GitLab release notes.
