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 🙏

About

Compare Apples To Oranges

cato.js is a dependency free library for (image) comparison sliders.

It currently gets rewritten in modern JavaScript. Version 1.0.0 (WIP) aims to bring more flexibility, less boilerplate html and better browser support. You can find more info in the roadmap issue.

For the initial (Webkit only) release see v0.0.1

How To

With a CDN

Place the stylesheet inside the <head></head> tag of your HTML file.

  <link rel="stylesheet" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@herrfugbaum/cato@latest/dest/cato.min.css">

Place the script just before your closing </body> tag of your HTML file.

  <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@herrfugbaum/cato@latest/dest/cato.min.js"></script>

Add the simple HTML inside your <body></body> tag of your HTML file.

<div id="my-slider">
  <img src="path/to/my/image" /> <!-- left image -->
  <img src="path/to/my/image" /> <!-- right image -->
</div>

Add this JavaScript snippet inside your <body></body> tags of your HTML file and wrap it with a <script></script> tag. Alternatively you can place this inside a, for example, index.js file and load it with <script src="path/to/my/index.js"></script>. In both cases make sure to place this script tag after the tag in which you load the Cato library from the CDN.

You can find a working example in the examples/global-variable/ directory.

const options = {
  direction: 'vertical', // string horizontal & vertical
  width: 700, // integer defaults to max-width: 100%; via CSS
  height: 450, // integer defaults to height: auto; via CSS
  initial: 30, // integer default = 30px (initial position for slider in px)
  filter: {
    active: true, // boolean
    effect:
      'grayscale(200%)' /* url, blur, brightness, contrast, drop-shadow, grayscale, hue-rotate, invert, opacity, saturate, sepia */,
  },
}

const container = document.getElementById('my-slider')

const mySlider = new Cato(options, container)

mySlider.createSlider()
