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 🙏

A fun CLI tool for getting the best boilerplate repos from github

Readme

Boiler

A CLI tool for cloning the top rated repos, please i really that if you have any ideas to add to the project feel free to make a PR

First, we just wanted an app that does one specific task, which is to download the best repo from github. So, please if you have additional functionalities or features that you think will be useful or awesome, submit a pull request at the repo. I would really love this project to become a community.

Run npm install -g @samie820/boiler to install boiler globally on your system

then, run boiler list, this will ask you some questions which include the search query.

Warning: Make sure to run the boiler list command first so as to know the number which you would use in the next command

Then,run boiler start which will ask you for some other queries, including the number of the repo you want to clone as indicated in the previous command.
