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 🙏

v2.0.3

Published

FAF Mk4 Scoring Kernel — WASM-compiled Rust engine for scoring .faf files and compiling .fafb binaries. The Foundry.

Readme

faf-scoring-kernel

FAF Mk4 Scoring Kernel — WASM-compiled Rust engine for scoring .faf files and compiling .fafb binaries.

The Foundry. 281KB. 136 tests. In Rust We Trust.

Install

npm install faf-scoring-kernel

Works in Node.js and Bun.

Usage

const kernel = require('faf-scoring-kernel');

// Score a .faf file
const result = JSON.parse(kernel.score_faf(`
project:
  name: my-project
  goal: Ship fast
  main_language: TypeScript
`));

console.log(result.score);  // 14
console.log(result.tier);   // 🔴
console.log(result.populated, '/', result.active);  // 3 / 21

API

8 pure-function exports. No classes. No state.

| Function | Input | Output | Description | |----------|-------|--------|-------------| | sdk_version() | — | string | Engine version | | score_faf(yaml) | YAML string | JSON string | Mk4 base scoring (21 slots) | | score_faf_enterprise(yaml) | YAML string | JSON string | Mk4 enterprise scoring (33 slots) | | validate_faf(yaml) | YAML string | boolean | Check if valid YAML mapping | | compile_fafb(yaml) | YAML string | Uint8Array | Compile .faf to .fafb binary | | decompile_fafb(bytes) | Uint8Array | JSON string | Decompile .fafb to JSON | | score_fafb(bytes) | Uint8Array | JSON string | Read score from .fafb binary | | fafb_info(bytes) | Uint8Array | JSON string | Header/section metadata |

Tier System

| Score | Tier | Status | |-------|------|--------| | 100% | 🏆 Trophy | Optimized | | 99% | 🥇 Gold | Exceptional | | 95-98% | 🥈 Silver | Top tier | | 85-94% | 🥉 Bronze | Production ready | | 70-84% | 🟢 Green | Solid foundation | | 55-69% | 🟡 Yellow | Needs improvement | | <55% | 🔴 Red | Major work needed | | 0% | 🤍 White | Empty |

Compile .fafb

const kernel = require('faf-scoring-kernel');

// Compile YAML to FAFb binary
const yaml = 'faf_version: "1.0"\nproject_name: my-project';
const bytes = kernel.compile_fafb(yaml);
// bytes[0..4] === "FAFB" (magic bytes)

// Decompile back
const json = kernel.decompile_fafb(bytes);

// Read score from binary
const score = kernel.score_fafb(bytes);

What Is This?

This is the universal FAF scoring and compilation engine, compiled from Rust to WebAssembly. It implements:

  • Mk4 Engine — 33-slot scoring with placeholder rejection and tier calculation
  • FAFb Binary Format — 32-byte header, CRC32 checksum, priority sections

One binary. Same scores everywhere. The code is the spec.
