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 🙏

Introduction

This is a small node application which provides a real-time chat function based on socket.io. It requires a 'host' environment, usually a CMS, and has almost no native html or CSS. It requires a <div id="chat"> element on the page to render its content.

Installation

Once installed, set the port number you want to use in config.js (clients must be able to connect to your host at this port). Then simply start with

node chat-server.js

Limited support for automatic installation as a HubZero plugin is provided (see the HubZero website for more information). To install the node plugin, go to the Extension Manager in HubZero, and use:

https://localhost:<port>/install/HZ

as the extension URL. Providing the node server is running, it will package up and deliver a HZ plugin. This must then be enabled and configured via HZ. Note that the port number from config.js must be specified when configuring the plugin - eventually, there will be a single source for this port number.
