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 🙏

Readme

ical-gen-app

The ical-gen-app project provides a command-line interface (CLI) application (iCalGenerator) that consumes a JSON file containing calendar event data and generates an iCalendar (.ics) file.

Overview

The iCalGenerator CLI application is designed to generate iCalendar files (e.g., myCalendar.ics) conforming to appropriate calendar componants defined in the iCalendar Specification. This CLI application takes as input a path to a JSON source file containing event details. The JSON source file was designed to be a simple, easy-to-read, and easy-to-write format for calendar event data. It must adhere to the application-specific JSON Schema.

The intent is to generate calendars that can be imported into various calendar applications. Example use cases include calendars containing events for:

  • Family's birthdays and anniversaries that can be provided to all family members
  • Sports team's practices and games that can be provided to all team members
  • Curated set of specific holidays

These generated calendars DO NOT support scheduling or event management such as sending event requests, managing attendees, or updating existing events.

Description

The iCalGenerator CLI application is a simple tool that:

  • Reads the provided JSON source file
  • Validates the JSON against the application-specific JSON Schema (using Ajv)
  • Generates an iCalendar object (using ical-generator)
  • Writes the generated iCalendar object to a file in a predetermined output path

If desired, this generated iCalendar file can be validated using the iCalendar Validator before importing it into a calendar application such as Google Calendar or Apple Calendar.
