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 🙏

chipctx

ChipCtx CLI for CMSIS-based embedded project workflows.

  • Discover boards/devices and resolve required CMSIS packs
  • Initialize project scaffolds from board/device context
  • Build with CMSIS-Toolbox + Arm GNU Toolchain
  • Manage pack sources and toolbox setup

Install

npm install -g chipctx

Requirements:

  • Node.js >=18

Quick Start

# 1) Install toolbox/toolchain dependencies (one-time)
chipctx setup

# 2) Load toolchain environment in current shell
source ~/.chipctx/env.sh

# 3) Create a project from board metadata
chipctx project init --board NUCLEO-G431RB --examples Blinky -v

# 4) Build
chipctx build

Common Commands

# Check toolbox readiness
chipctx toolbox check

# Initialize by board or device
chipctx project init --board NUCLEO-G431RB --examples Blinky
chipctx project init --device STM32G431RBTx --examples Blinky

# Build and flash
chipctx build
chipctx flash

# Manage pack index sources
chipctx sources list
chipctx sources update

# Search local pack index
chipctx pack search Tai-Action

Configuration

Default config file:

~/.chipctx/config.toml

Useful global flags:

chipctx --api-url <url> ...
chipctx --json ...
chipctx -v ...

Troubleshooting

If global install fails with EACCES, use a user-level npm prefix:

mkdir -p ~/.npm-global
npm config set prefix ~/.npm-global
echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.npm-global/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
npm install -g chipctx

If build tools are not found in the current shell:

source ~/.chipctx/env.sh

After chipctx setup succeeds, chipctx automatically runs chipctx sources update to refresh the local pack index cache.
