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 🙏

Novel JS strings through function calls

Readme

beardfondle

Inspired by WTFJS. This library extends String.prototype to encode and decode strings.

How to Use

//JavaScript
var bf = require('beardfondle');

//TypeScript
import bf = require('beardfondle');

var foo = 'Noodle ocelot';
var bar = foo.beard();

console.log(bar);
// (+{}+[])[+[]]+({}+[])[+!+[]]+({}+[])[+!+[]]+([][[]]+[])[+!+[]+!+[]]+(![]+[])[!+[]+!+[]]+(!![]+[])[!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]+({}+[])[!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]+({}+[])[+!+[]]+({}+[])[!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]+(!![]+[])[!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]+(![]+[])[!+[]+!+[]]+({}+[])[+!+[]]+(!![]+[])[+[]]

var baz = bar.fondle();

console.log(baz);
// Noodle ocelot

String.fondle() is not needed to decode the library. Just open any browser console and type console.log((![]+[])[+!+[]]+(![]+[])[!+[]+!+[]]+({}+[])[!+[]+!+[]]+([][[]]+[])[+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]+([][[]]+[])[+!+[]]+({}+[])[+!+[]]). Through the magic of JavaScript you will get a string back.

NOTE: String.fondle() does not simply decode they symbols back to characters. The method is a wrapper for eval() with some basic checks to prevent malicious use. DO NOT USE THIS LIBRARY IN PRODUCTION. eval() IS ALMOST NEVER SAFE.

The individual symbols can be accessed by importing the package and accessing the symbols object:

var bf = require('beardfondle');

console.log(bf.symbols.a);
// (![]+[])[+!+[]]

console.log(bf.symbols[" "]);
// ({}+[])[!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]

Currently the only characters supported are:

a
b
c
d
e
f
i  (lower)
I  (upper)
j
l
n  (lower)
N  (upper)
o  (lower)
O  (upper)
r
s
t
u
y
0
1
2

9
   (space)

FAQ

How does it work?

According to WTFJS:

So we try adding [] to false. But due to a number of internal function calls (binary + Operator -> ToPrimitive -> [[DefaultValue]]) we end up converting the right operand to a string:

(![]+[].toString()) // 'false'

Thinking of a string as an array we can access its first character via [0]:

'false'[0] // -> 'f'

That's why only certain letters are supported. So far I've only figured out true, false, NaN, undefined, Infinity, and [object Object].

Why did you make this?

Because I wanted to.

What's with the name?

It can be constructed using only this library.

({}+[])[!+[]+!+[]]+(!![]+[])[!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]+(![]+[])[+!+[]]+(!![]+[])[+!+[]]+([][[]]+[])[+!+[]+!+[]]+(![]+[])[+[]]+({}+[])[+!+[]]+([][[]]+[])[+!+[]]+([][[]]+[])[+!+[]+!+[]]+(![]+[])[!+[]+!+[]]+(!![]+[])[!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]

I originally chose (![]+[])[+[]]+(![]+[])[+!+[]]+(!![]+[])[+!+[]]+(!![]+[])[+[]]+({}+[])[!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]+(!![]+[])[!+[]+!+[]]+([][[]]+[])[+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]+({}+[])[!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]+!+[]]+(!![]+[])[!+[]+!+[]+!+[]] but ultimately decided against it.
