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 🙏

Figure Speaker

This project is a Raspberry Pi based audio player which plays songs or audiobooks depending on a NFC Tag which is placed on the player. The NFC Tags can be attached to the bottom of a figure. This is an intuitive way for children to select the audiobooks they want to here based on the figures they associate with it.

The main feature of this project is a Spotify integration which lets you access all your favourite songs and audio books you already pay for every month. By using the audio server Mopidy internally, further cloud services can be integrated really easily. Box

Feature List

  • Spotify integration
  • Easy to maintain and register figures through a web application
  • Portable by using a power bank
  • Play local mp3 files
  • Configure volume
  • Max volume is configurable
  • Define what happens after the figure is replaced on the audio player
    • Play the track from the beginning
    • Play the track where you left off
  • Easy to connect to new WiFi by creating an AdHoc network if the box cannot connect to WiFi
  • Update Manager which will allow you to receive the latest features without opening the box
  • Open for other cloud services
