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 🙏

Parallel

Recently while browsing through the web, I came across a linux command line utility called Parallel (https://github.com/martinda/gnu-parallel) and I fell in love with the concept writting your code to perform the best in single thread and allowing parallel to run it parallely with their arguments passed as an array.

So being web dveloper, I know we have Web Worker (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Workers_API/Using_web_workers), but not every one is familiar with and to be frank setting up worker is little tricky for new comers and therefore I thought to replicate the concept of parallel but in browser, let me show how easy it has become to run your code parallely now ;)

<script type="module">
    <!--  Our first task is to import parallel in our code base -->
    import loadParallel from './src/index.js'

    <!-- The function which is going to runn parallely -->
    const fn  = (arg) => {
        return arg * arg
    }
    <!-- Onload of Parallel it checks the browser compatibility
        and loads few scrips in the broswer -->
    const parallel = loadParallel()

    <!--  The above returned function takes two parameters
            fn -> the function as argument and time -> as second argument
            this is to ensure never this threads can only run till this time
            and the function return our function in paralleled version -->
    const paralleledFunction = parallel(fn, 500)

    <!-- paralleledFunction run as normal function but intead
        of result it returns a promise!  -->
    paralleledFunction([1,2,3,4,5]).then((result) => {

        <!-- In the then block it will have all results in sequential
            manner as the array provided -->
        console.log(result)

    }).catch((err) => {
        
        <!-- Or may be the time has catched up! -->
        console.log(err)
    });

</script>
