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 🙏

htdotfile

v1.4.1

Published

Cross-platform dotfile manager TUI powered by OpenTUI

Readme

HTDotFile

Cross-platform dotfile manager TUI powered by React and OpenTUI.

HTDotFile reads a portable YAML manifest, scans only configured paths, previews every filesystem change, and creates adjacent backups before replacing existing targets.

Version 1.4 adds a background tray daemon and repository divergence resolution.

Install With npm

HTDotFile can be installed directly from npm on Windows, Linux, and macOS:

npm install --global htdotfile

Then run:

htdot

The alias htdotfile is also available.

Bun is declared as a dependency, so npm installs it automatically along with the package. No separate Bun installation is required.

Alternative Bun Install

You may also use Bun as the package manager:

bun install --global htdotfile

Both installation methods install the same npm package. HTDotFile declares Bun as a dependency, so it is installed automatically; OpenTUI selects its native renderer dependency for the current OS and CPU.

Usage

htdot
htdot --manifest /path/to/htdot.yaml
htdot --version

Manifest selection order:

  1. --manifest
  2. HTDOT_MANIFEST
  3. htdot.yaml in the current directory
  4. The operating-system user configuration directory

Controls

| Input | Action | | --- | --- | | Up/Down, j/k | Select a dotfile | | Mouse click | Select an item or button | | Mouse wheel | Move through the list | | p | Preview the selected change | | Enter | Confirm an applicable preview | | a | Open the preset library | | e | Edit source and target paths | | g | Open repository settings | | r | Rescan configured paths | | Esc | Cancel or close | | q, Ctrl+C | Quit |

Safety

  • Scanning is read-only.
  • Apply requires a preview and explicit confirmation.
  • The executor revalidates source and target state immediately before applying.
  • Existing targets are renamed into a unique adjacent backup before replacement.
  • Rollback failures report the retained backup path.
  • Copy strategy currently supports regular files only.
