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 🙏

Sauce Test Status

Garðr is a library for embedding content from external sources such as advertisements or similar third party content.

Removes the need for friendly iframes support in delivery systems and supports both HTML, Image and Flash based adverts. The iframe should be hosted on a different domain to enable security-features in the browser that prevents third party content to insert content or get user info from the parent page. postMessage is used for cross-domain communication.

Pre-requisits

Testing

Easiest way is through npm.

$ npm test

When working with the code you can use karma and grunt to get continuous feedback on your tests.

$ npm run watch

Logging

Debugging can be done by configuring logging to either the browser console or as an overlay inside the iframes rendered by Garðr.

You can turn on logging by adding an url-fragment with log level on the page you're using Garðr: #loglevel=4 By default it will display an overlay inside each banner with the log output. If the banner isn't visible, you can output to console by using: #loglevel=4&logto=console

NB! If the banner injects another iframe we have no good way of catching errors :(

Polyfills required for IE8+ support

  • ES5-shim You do not need a sham (unsafe polyfills).
  • postMessage is required, so it won't work in IE7 at the moment.

Releasing new versions

# Make sure you have installed npm-release
$ npm install -g npm-release

# Release (make sure you have have nothing uncommited)
$ npm-release [<newversion> | major | minor | patch | build]

Samples in the wild

  • All of the display adverst on m.finn.no is using Garðr to safely embed responsive adverts written in HTML, CSS and JS.
