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 minimal superset language of GML with TypeScript-like module system

Readme

ScaffScript

ScaffScript Banner

A minimal superset language of GameMaker Language (GML) for creating module-based GameMaker source codes. This minimal language is mainly used for developing GML libraries, but can also be used for other purposes.

[!CAUTION] ScaffScript is not affiliated with or endorsed by YoYo Games Ltd. GameMaker and GML are trademarks of YoYo Games Ltd.

[!WARNING] This project is still in early development. The syntax and features are subject to change. Use at your own risk.


Key Features

  • TypeScript-like Module System. Use export, import, and include to organize code across .ss files, fully resolved at compile-time.
  • Class Syntax. Define classes with constructors, properties, and methods that compile to GML struct constructors. Extend classes across files with impl.
  • Content Directives. Inline compiled GML content (@content, @valueof, @:, etc.) directives for dynamic code insertion.
  • Special Values. Access compile-time tokens like @now, @today, @version, @file, and @line for metadata and debugging.
  • Code Generation Blocks. Use #[blockName] to define named content sections and intg to map them to GameMaker asset paths.
  • GameMaker Integration. Automatically writes .gml files, generates .yy metadata, and updates your .yyp project file for scripts and objects.
  • File Scanning & Processing. Recursive scanning of .ss and .gml files with dependency-aware processing order.
