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

open-doc

A polished, GitBook-style documentation-site framework. Write Markdown, run one command, get a beautiful static site — sidebar navigation, full-text search, light/dark themes, and MDX components, all bundled.

Quick start

npm install -D @openlaboratory/open-doc
npx open-doc init      # scaffolds a config + first page, adds npm scripts
npm run dev

init creates this for you — or set it up by hand. Create open-doc.config.ts:

import { defineConfig } from '@openlaboratory/open-doc'

export default defineConfig({
  title: 'My Docs',
  nav: [{ label: 'Getting Started', dir: 'getting-started', pages: ['introduction'] }],
})

Add content/getting-started/introduction.md:

---
title: Introduction
description: Welcome.
---

# Introduction

Hello, world!

Add scripts and run:

{
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "open-doc dev",
    "build": "open-doc build",
    "preview": "open-doc preview",
  },
}
npm run dev      # http://localhost:4321
npm run build    # → ./dist

CLI

  • open-doc init — scaffold a starter config + first page
  • open-doc dev — dev server (--port, --host)
  • open-doc build — static build + search index → ./dist
  • open-doc preview — serve the built site
  • open-doc check — type-check content, config, and components

Configuration

Set these in open-doc.config.ts:

| Option | Description | | -------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | | title | Required. Site title. | | description | Home-page tagline. | | contentDir | Markdown folder. Default ./content. | | base | Sub-path hosting, e.g. /docs. Default /. | | site | Canonical URL — enables canonical tags, OpenGraph, and a sitemap. | | lang | <html lang>. Default en. | | logo | { text?, src?, href? } header logo. | | social | { icon?, label?, href }[] header links. | | defaultTheme | 'dark' \| 'light' \| 'auto'. Default dark. | | theme | { light?, dark? } HSL color overrides. | | editLinkBase | Base URL for "Edit this page" links. | | nav | Required. { label, dir?, pages[] }[] — the sidebar. |

The full guide and a live example live in the project repository.

open-doc provides the React runtime for MDX components. TSX authoring and open-doc check still need @types/react and @types/react-dom in your project.
