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 🙏

Stopify Build Status

Stopify is a JavaScript-to-JavaScript compiler that makes JavaScript a better target language for high-level languages and web-based programming tools. Stopify enhances JavaScript with debugging abstractions, blocking operations, and support for long-running computations.

Suppose you have a compiler C from language L to JavaScript. You can apply Stopify to the output of C and leave C almost entirely unchanged. Stopify will provide the following features:

  1. Stopify will support long-running L programs without freezing the browser tab. In particular, programs can access the DOM and are not limited to Web Workers.

  2. Stopify can pause or terminate an L program, even if it is an infinite loop.

  3. Stopify can set breakpoints or single-step through the L program, if C generates source maps.

  4. Stopify can simulate an arbitrarily deep stack and proper tail calls. This feature is necessary to run certain functional programs in the browser.

  5. Stopify can simulate blocking operations on the web.

We have tested Stopify with ten languages: (1) C++, (2) Clojure, (3) Dart, (4) Java, (5) JavaScript, (6) OCaml, (7) Pyret, (8) Python, (9) Scheme, and (10) Scala. Some of these are available on the Stopify demo page (www.stopify.org) and the rest are coming soon.

To learn how to use Stopify in your own project, see the Stopify Manual.

For a technical overview of Stopify, see our PLDI 2018 paper Putting in All the Stops: Execution Control for JavaScript.
