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 🙏

Readme

@mwm/functional

You're looking at an experimental, extremely-minimal, functional library with a focus on clear source-code and readable function signatures. I've tried to design each function so that browsers and IDEs will generate readable function signatures and easy to debug code. Further, every exported function has an even simpler, haskell-style, <function>.signature string that you can examine.

Rational

Some of the challenges I've encountered learning Functional Programming in JavaScript are obtuse function signatures and implementations that are hard to debug. This project is designed to remedy these issues.

The goal is to provide simple, debuggable, functional programming building blocks that anyone can use while learning FP concepts. Implementations should be largely stand-alone, easy to read, and easy to debug. As a consequence, many of the included functions will contain duplicate and unoptimized code, but easier reading and reduced cognitive load should make the trade-off worthwhile.

This library is not meant to replace well-tested and engineered libraries like lodash/fp or Ramda. Instead, it's primarily meant to be a learning aid. I'll be using this library as part of the tutorials you can find at my website and GitHub profile. Please check them out … eventually!

Compatibility

Functional implements a subset of the Ramda API, but not the entire API. When you're ready, you can easily replace the Functional dependency with Ramda, without needing to refactor your code.

Credits

To keep this library simple and easily debuggable, I'll occasionally copy code from projects that have a compatible license into this project (instead of importing it as a dependency). When this is done, I'll include the original license with the source-code for that module, and (with permission) I'll give credit both here and in package.json's contributor field. Programming is hard work, and I can't thank the open-source community enough for the enormity of their multitudinous efforts!
