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

IFB

IFB is a keyboard-first interview assistant for live coding, system design, SQL, and behavioral rounds.

What it does

  • Capture interview screenshots and send them to your AI provider
  • Record voice context with Azure Speech
  • Switch between interview modes with quick shortcuts
  • Keep the workflow minimal, fast, and screen-share friendly

Quick Start

npm install
npm run dev

Setup

  • Add your AI provider API key in the launcher
  • Add your Azure Speech key and region for voice capture
  • Grant screen and microphone permissions
  • Activate your IFB license key to launch

Build

npm run build

CLI

The package now exposes a CLI entry point:

npx ifb-cli start

The CLI downloads the correct platform build into ~/.ifb/ if it is not already installed, then launches it detached from the terminal.

Release Hosting

The CLI expects a release endpoint that can serve either:

  • a manifest JSON at IFB_DOWNLOAD_MANIFEST_URL or package.json#ifb.downloadManifestUrl
  • a direct archive URL at IFB_DOWNLOAD_URL

The default archive template is:

https://downloads.ifb.app/ifb/releases/{version}/ifb-{platform}-{arch}.zip

Set these environment variables before publishing a real release host:

  • IFB_DOWNLOAD_MANIFEST_URL
  • IFB_DOWNLOAD_BASE_URL
  • IFB_DOWNLOAD_URL
  • IFB_DOWNLOAD_SHA256
  • IFB_DOWNLOAD_URL_TEMPLATE

Production Build Pipeline

npm run build
npm run obfuscate
npm run package

Pipeline order:

  1. build generates the Electron renderer output into dist/
  2. obfuscate copies dist/ to dist-obf/ and obfuscates only renderer/business JavaScript
  3. package runs electron-builder using the obfuscated renderer assets

Local Testing

npm install
npm run dev

For a local packaged-style run:

npm run build
npm start

To test the CLI locally against a staging archive:

IFB_DOWNLOAD_URL="http://localhost:8080/ifb-win32-x64.zip" npx ifb-cli start

Publishing the npm Package

  1. Bump version in package.json
  2. Verify bin/cli.js is executable
  3. Run npm publish --access public

Only the CLI/runtime files under bin/ and lib/ are included in the npm package payload.
