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 🙏

API Reference

formatNumber(num: number, options?: { locale?: string; subscript?: boolean }): string

Formats a number with appropriate decimal places based on its magnitude. Values are truncated (not rounded) to the specified decimal places.

  • num: The number to format
  • options.locale: Optional locale string (default: 'en-US')
  • options.subscript: Whether to use subscript notation for very small numbers (default: true)

Features:

  • Automatically formats large numbers with suffixes (Million, Billion, Trillion, Quadrillion)
  • Uses subscript notation for very small numbers (≥3 leading zeros), e.g., 0.0₇1942 for 0.00000001942
  • Truncates values instead of rounding
  • Locale-aware formatting (e.g., uses comma as decimal separator for German locale)

Examples:

formatNumber(1234.56719); // "1,234.567" (truncated)
formatNumber(0.000123); // "0.0₃123"
formatNumber(1000000); // "1.00 Million"
formatNumber(1234.567, { locale: 'de-DE' }); // "1.234,567"
formatNumber(0.000123, { subscript: false }); // "0.000123" (no subscript)

formatMoney(number: number, options?: { currency?: string; locale?: string; subscript?: boolean }): string

Formats a number as currency with appropriate decimal places. Values are truncated (not rounded).

  • number: The number to format
  • options.currency: Currency code (default: 'USD')
  • options.locale: Optional locale string (default: 'en-US')
  • options.subscript: Whether to use subscript notation for very small numbers (default: true)

Examples:

formatMoney(1234.999999); // "$1,234.99" (truncated)
formatMoney(1234.56, { currency: 'EUR', locale: 'en-US' }); // "€1,234.56"
formatMoney(1000000); // "$1.00 Million"
formatMoney(0.000123456); // "$0.0₃1234" (with subscript)
formatMoney(0.000123456, { subscript: false }); // "$0.000123" (no subscript)

getCurrencySymbol(currency?: string, locale?: string): string

Gets the currency symbol for a given currency code.

  • currency: Currency code (default: 'USD')
  • locale: Optional locale string (default: 'en-US')

Examples:

getCurrencySymbol('USD'); // "$"
getCurrencySymbol('EUR', 'en-US'); // "€"

toLocaleDateString(date: Date, locale?: string): string

Formats a date as a localized date string (e.g., "Jan 15, 2024").

  • date: The date to format
  • locale: Optional locale string (default: 'en-US')

Examples:

toLocaleDateString(new Date('2024-01-15T10:30:00Z')); // "Jan 15, 2024"
toLocaleDateString(new Date('2024-01-15T10:30:00Z'), 'vi-VN'); // "15 thg 1, 2024"

toLocaleTimeString(date: Date, locale?: string): string

Formats a date as a localized time string (e.g., "3:45 PM").

  • date: The date to format
  • locale: Optional locale string (default: 'en-US')

toLocaleDateTimeString(date: Date, locale?: string): string

Formats a date as a localized date and time string (e.g., "Jan 15, 2024, 3:45:30 PM").

  • date: The date to format
  • locale: Optional locale string (default: 'en-US')

toDayOfWeek(date: Date, locale?: string): string

Gets the day of the week as a localized string (e.g., "Monday").

  • date: The date to format
  • locale: Optional locale string (default: 'en-US')

convertTimestampToDateIfNeeds(text: string, locale?: string): string

Converts a timestamp string to a formatted date string if it's a valid timestamp (within 50 years from now), otherwise returns the original text.

  • text: The text that might be a timestamp
  • locale: Optional locale string (default: 'en-US')

isEqualCaseInsensitive(value1?: string | null, value2?: string | null): boolean

Compares two strings case-insensitively.

  • value1: First string to compare
  • value2: Second string to compare

formatWalletAddress(address: string, value?: number): string

Formats a wallet address by showing the first and last N characters with ellipsis in between.

  • address: The address string to format
  • value: Number of characters to show at the start and end (default: 4)

Examples:

formatWalletAddress('0x1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef12345678'); // "0x1234...5678"
formatWalletAddress('0x1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef12345678', 6); // "0x123456...345678"

Key Features

Truncation vs Rounding

All number formatting functions (formatNumber, formatMoney) truncate values instead of rounding them:

formatNumber(1234.56719); // "1,234.567" (not "1,234.568")
formatMoney(1234.999999); // "$1,234.99" (not "$1,235.00")

Subscript Notation for Very Small Numbers

Numbers with 3 or more leading zeros after the decimal point are displayed using subscript notation (can be disabled with subscript: false):

formatNumber(0.000123); // "0.0₃123" (3 leading zeros)
formatNumber(0.00000001942323); // "0.0₇1942" (7 leading zeros)
formatNumber(0.0000000000000000000123456); // "0.0₂₀1234" (20 leading zeros)
formatMoney(0.000123456); // "$0.0₃1234" (currency with subscript)

The subscript notation supports any number of leading zeros and shows up to 4 significant digits. It works for both formatNumber and formatMoney functions.

Locale Support

All formatting functions support locale parameters for internationalization:

formatNumber(1234.567, { locale: 'de-DE' }); // "1.234,567" (German locale)
formatMoney(1234.56, { currency: 'EUR', locale: 'de-DE' }); // "1.234,56 €"
toLocaleDateString(new Date('2024-01-15'), 'vi-VN'); // "15 thg 1, 2024"
