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 🙏

Developer Email let's you receieve SMTP email and display it in a webpage without sending out real emails

Readme

dmail

Developer Email -- An SMTP and webserver for capturing and displaying emails during development

Inspired by MailCatcher, and fueled by some weekend-warrior-coding.

dmail

Usage

After fetching the git repo, jump in and...

npm install
node dmail.js -q5 -s2500 -h2501`

That's it. You'll have the daemon up and running in the foreground. You can point your SMTP senders at port 2500 and your browser at 2501 and watch emails as they come in.

Notes

  • MailCatcher is way more fully featured. You probably want that unless you're interested in this from a learning perspective.
  • Attachments "work" in the sense that they come across the wire into the HTML page, but, uh, they don't render or anything. So there's that.
  • This is WILDLY insecure. XSS from HTML emails galore, no auth around it, etc, etc. It's really, truly only something you'd have on a dev machine. Maybe even that's pushing it ;)
