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 static blog framework made for developers that allows content to be written in Markdown directly from the IDE.

Readme

🚧 Work in progress This framework is still under active development. Expect changes.

Blazed Past Us..

A static blog framework that lets you write content in Markdown directly from your IDE.

Silver Surfer asked:
"How fast can a dev blog go?"

Gass Git, intrigued, answered:
"I don't know… shall we see?"

Silver Surfer looked dubious and curious:
"Very well… let the cosmos bear witness."

About the framework

  • Designed for static hosting environments (e.g. GitHub Pages) — no server-side rewrites required.
  • Uses hash routing.
  • Fetches static JSON.
  • Fetches HTML fragments.
  • Avoids history API clean URLs.
  • Doesn’t rely on server fallback.

How to write posts ?

  • The post file name will be the title.
  • There is no need to add the title within the .md file, this will be set by the meta data.
  • Post tags are written in every post on the very top as tag1, tag2,...
  • The descriptions of the posts will be a brief showcase of the first paragraph (below the tags).

Useful notes

  • Append /#/?tags= to the base URL to filter home page posts by tag.
