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 🙏

  • assertArraysEqual(arr1, arr2): Function that asserts if two arrays are equal.
  • assertEqual(prim1, prim2): Function that asserts if two primitives are equal.
  • assertObjectsEqual(obj1, obj2): Function that asserts if two objects are equal.
  • countLetters(string): Function that returns letter count of a given string.
  • countOnly(items, itemsToCount): function that takes items and returns count of speciefied items.
  • eqArrays(arr1, arr2): Functions that compares two arrays and returns true if they're equal.
  • eqObjects(obj1, obj2): Function that takes two objects and returns true if the objects are an exact match.
  • findKey(obj, callback): Function that takes in object and a callback, returns the key if the call back function is satisfied.
  • findKeyByValue(obj, val):function that taken in an object and a value. Returns the key of the given value.
  • flatten(NestedArray): Function that takes in a nested array and returns a flattened/unnested array containing all values of the nested array.
  • head(array): Function that takes in an array and returns the head(first elemnet) in the array. Otherwise undefined is returned.
  • index: Contains all the utility functions mentioned here, encapsulated in an object for better access.
  • letterPositions(sentence): Fucntions that returns the position(index) of each letter in the given sentece.
  • map(array, callBack): Function that taken in an array and a callback function. Returns a new array of the elements that satisfy the callback function.
  • middle(array): Function that takes in an array and returns the middle.
  • tail(array): Function that takes in an array and returns the tail of the array (removes head).
  • takeUntil(array, callBack): Function that takes in an array and a callback. pushes all items of array into into a new array, until the callback evalautes to true.
  • without(array, itemsToRemove): Functions that takes in two arrays. the original array and an array containing the items to remove. Returns the new array with the removed items.
