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 🙏

printing-press: Agentic-first OpenAPI and AsyncAPI documentation

Pipeline Docker Pulls discord Docs

printing-press turns OpenAPI and AsyncAPI contracts into beautiful, fast, portable API documentation for humans and agents.

  • Works 100% offline. Open the generated docs straight from disk, zip them, or share them as an archive
  • Publish to any static host (GitHub Pages, S3, Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, a CDN)
  • AI and agent output built in. AGENTS.md, llms.txt, per-operation and per-model markdown, plus JSON artifacts
  • API catalogs built from directories of OpenAPI and AsyncAPI specs, with multi-version awareness
  • Integrated diagnostics via vacuum reports rendered inline with the docs
  • Mermaid / UML class diagrams auto-generated for complex schemas

Install

Install using curl

curl -fsSL https://pb33f.io/printing-press/install.sh | sh

For CI environments, set GITHUB_TOKEN to avoid GitHub API rate limits:

GITHUB_TOKEN="${GITHUB_TOKEN}" curl -fsSL https://pb33f.io/printing-press/install.sh | sh

Install using npm

npm i -g @pb33f/printing-press

The npm package is the most convenient install path for Windows. Requires Node 20 or newer.

Install using Homebrew

brew install pb33f/taps/printing-press

Install using Go

go install github.com/pb33f/printing-press@latest

Go names the binary printing-press because it derives command names from the module path. For every other install method the binary is ppress.

Install using Docker

Docker images are published to both Docker Hub and GitHub Container Registry:

docker run --rm pb33f/printing-press:latest version
docker run --rm ghcr.io/pb33f/printing-press:latest version

Render docs from the current directory:

docker run --rm -v "$PWD:/work" -w /work pb33f/printing-press:latest ./openapi.yaml
docker run --rm -v "$PWD:/work" -w /work ghcr.io/pb33f/printing-press:latest ./openapi.yaml

See the installing docs for the full Docker recipes (read-only mounts, serving, port mapping, Linux user mapping).


Quick start

Step 1: Install ppress

curl -fsSL https://pb33f.io/printing-press/install.sh | sh

Step 2: Grab the sample train-travel spec

curl -o train-travel.yaml https://api.pb33f.io/bootstrap/train-travel

Step 3: Print!

ppress ./train-travel.yaml

Open api-docs/index.html in your browser and you have static, offline OpenAPI or AsyncAPI docs with no server running.

The source API contract is not exposed by default. Set includeSpec: true in printing-press.yaml or pass --include-spec to copy it into the generated site and link source locations. Set includeSpec: false, or pass --include-spec=false to override an enabled config value, to keep the contract out of the rendered output.

To preview the published (web-hosted) layout locally, use --serve:

ppress --serve --output ./api-docs ./train-travel.yaml

Then open http://127.0.0.1:9090.
