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 🙏

🔐 Auth CLI Tool

A Command Line Interface (CLI) tool to instantly scaffold Express.js authentication boilerplates with TypeScript + ESM support.
It saves time by generating ready-to-use authentication projects with MongoDB (Mongoose) or PostgreSQL (Prisma) and JWT / Cookie-based authentication strategies.


📌 Why this tool?

Instead of manually setting up authentication every time you start a new project, this tool generates a clean, extensible boilerplate with all the necessary code and dependencies pre-installed.
You just run one command and start coding your business logic 🚀.


🛠 Tech Stack

The generated projects use:

  • Node.js + Express.js
  • TypeScript (strict mode enabled, full ESM)
  • Authentication
    • JWT-based auth
    • Cookie-based auth
  • Databases
    • MongoDB with Mongoose
    • PostgreSQL with Prisma ORM
  • Utilities
    • Bcrypt.js for password hashing
    • Cookie-parser (if using cookies)
    • JSON Web Token
  • Auto-generated .env file with placeholders
  • For Prisma projects → includes schema.prisma + auto npx prisma generate

📦 Installation

You can install globally or run with npx:

# Global install (recommended)
npm install -g auth-cli-tool

#then any time use ny typing this command
auth-cli-tool

# OR run directly without install
npx auth-cli-tool
