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 🙏

React Key Generator

A generator of random React keys using window.crypto.

Purpose

After working on several React-based projects integrated with SonarCloud/SonarQube quality reviews, I have noticed a pattern in the shape of a warning that requires a specific function to be solved: generating a random key for each project's children (feature used to avoid performance issues).

Now, I decided to create a simple but effective generator method that can be installed and called whenever needed, rather than implementing the whole function in each project.

Quick start

Several quick start options are available:

  • Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/NicolasOmar/react-key-generator.git.
  • Install with npm: npm install @nicolasomar/react-key-generator@latest
    • Before cloning this repo, I recommend installing Node >=20.10.0 to install packages.

Documentation

It will be added shortly in the form of TypeScript comments and other useful ways.

Usage

Once the package has been installed, just call its (for now) only method, generateKey whenever you need:

import { generateKey } from "@nicolasomar/react-key-generator"

Versioning

After my previous experience with semantic-release in other projects, I decided to give the following meaning to the project's versions after v4.0.0:

  • Major versions (5.0.0, 6.0.0, and beyond) will refer to milestone achievements and significant changes that will need extra attention before the update.
  • Minor versions (4.1.0, 4.2.0, and so on) will refer to bug fixes that required several important code changes or specific new features.
  • Patch versions (4.0.1, 4.0.2, and so on) will refer to bug fixes that required small code changes or weekly dependency updates.

I will not have a roadmap for this project until I need it.

Branching

Given the mentioned release logic, main is the only static branch, and each developed feature or fix will have a unique branch with its PR and a merge commit following semantic versioning and semantic commits specifications.

Changelog

The changelog (powered by semantic-release) is regularly updated to reflect what's changed in each new release.
