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 🙏

@softroutine/backlink-share

Fetch shared backlinks from a Softroutine Airtable Projects table and render them on your site's footer — a simple way to cross-link related products within the Softroutine portfolio.

Installation

npm install @softroutine/backlink-share

Usage

import { fetchSharedBacklinks } from '@softroutine/backlink-share';

const links = await fetchSharedBacklinks({
  apiKey: process.env.AIRTABLE_API_KEY,
  excludeDomain: 'yoursite.com', // optional: hide your own site from the list
});
// [{ name: 'Some Site', href: 'https://somesite.com' }, ...]

Options

| Option | Type | Required | Description | | --------------- | -------- | -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | | apiKey | string | Yes | Airtable personal access token. Throws when missing. | | excludeDomain | string | No | Substring to filter out from results (e.g. your own domain). | | baseId | string | No | Override the default Airtable base id. | | tableId | string | No | Override the default Airtable table id. |

Failure behavior

This package is intentionally strict so that backlinks remain stable across builds:

  • Missing apiKey — throws immediately. Backlinks are baked into static HTML at build time; silently returning [] would cause links to disappear on the next deploy and harm SEO.
  • Network failure — the Airtable request is retried up to 3 times with exponential backoff (≈1s, 2s, 4s, jittered). If all 4 attempts fail, the function throws and your build will fail loudly. Catch the error at the call site only if you have a deliberate fallback strategy.

Airtable table schema

The target table must contain these fields:

| Field name | Type | Description | | ---------------- | -------- | --------------------------------------------------- | | Name | Text | Display name of the link | | URL | URL | Target URL | | Backlink Share | Checkbox | Only records with this checked are returned |
