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 🙏

:fire: The Ultimate CommandLine Tool for creating different type of keys instantly, to make your development faster.

🧐 Have you ever wanted to generate a secret key for your access tokens and resfresh tokens and etc? ✅ Well it would be a yes definetely.

Practices

At First glance you'd say: "Ok, I will find a hard and meaning-less sentence and hash it using MD5 (horrible) or SHA family and use it as a secret (or salt). but this is actually a bad security practice. ❌ Cause as you know all those senteces and words could be converted back to their readable way.

☹️ What should we do then?

Aha! here you are. Use keygn right into your cmd and generate a safe key for any kind of encoding and decoding things you want to do!

🚀 Installation

npm i -g keygn

🪄 Usage

keygn
  1. Answer the first question about the length. (e.g 64 would generate a 64 byte key). image

  2. Then Choose how your key should be given to you. image

  3. 👽 And Done! image

Tip: both questions have default values (64 for length adn Hexadecimal (hex) for key tyoe. So you can just press [Enter] and Chill 🦭

Sample Output:

YOUR KEY: 3ba15c658a6c9c659908cb6893d9761a26e0641af33a0cb396a13d9e7b928c626882d3b050575b027da0717c48c745d633a5dfe7d4523aeea89648b508d864f9 (✨ Copied to clipboard)
