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 🙏

Readme

create-template-registry

A powerful CLI tool to scaffold new projects from a curated catalog of official templates.

The create-template-registry CLI allows you to generate ready-to-use projects interactively or via command-line arguments, ensuring you start with best practices and standard configurations.

Quick Start

The easiest way to get started is by running the interactive CLI. It will guide you through choosing a template and setting up your project.

npx create-template-registry
# or
npm create template-registry@latest

Usage

You can run the CLI non-interactively by passing the required options:

npx create-template-registry --template discord --dir my-discord-bot --name my-bot --package-manager npm --yes

Available Templates

To view all available templates, run:

npx create-template-registry --list-templates

Currently included templates:

  • discord: A robust TypeScript Discord.js v14 bot template with advanced configuration options.
  • discord-base: A minimalist Discord.js v14 starter bot fetched from niridya/base-bot-v14.

CLI Options

| Option | Description | |--------|-------------| | --template <id> | The ID of the template to use (e.g., discord, discord-base). | | --dir <path> | The target directory for the new project. | | --name <name> | The name of the project (used in package.json). | | --package-manager <npm|pnpm|yarn> | Your preferred package manager. | | --install / --skip-install | Whether to automatically install dependencies. | | --git / --skip-git | Whether to initialize a new git repository. | | --advanced | Enable advanced template-specific options. | | --yes | Skip interactive prompts and use defaults. | | --list-templates | List all available templates and exit. |
