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 🙏

About

Ion-JS is a JavaScript library for Ion -- this is currently alpha software and is subject to change. The library allows for reading/writing Ion data from within JavaScript code.

For more information on Ion have a look at the Ion Specification as well as some of the other Ion language specific libraries such as

Use

You can use ion-js either as a Node.js module or inside an html page.

NPM

  1. Add ion-js to your dependencies using npm
    npm install --save-dev ion-js
  2. Use the library to read/write ion data. Here is an example that reads Ion data from a JavaScript string
    var ionJs = require("ion-js")
    
    var ionData = "{ hello: \"Ion\" }"; 
    var ionReader = ionJs.makeReader(ionData); 
    ionReader.next(); 
    ionReader.stepIn(); 
    ionReader.next(); 
    var hello = ionReader.fieldName(); 
    var ion = ionReader.stringValue(); 
    ionReader.stepOut(); 
    console.log(ion.concat(", ").concat(hello));
    Try it yourself.

Browser

You can include the Ion-js bundle (ES5 compatible) using the URLs

These will create and initialize window.ion which has the exact API as our npm package. Here is an example

<html>
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8"/>
  <script src="scripts/ion-bundle.min.js"></script>

  <!-- more HTML/JS code that can now use `window.ion` to create/write Ion -->
</head>
</html>
