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 🙏

Kind 2 String - a parser for extract-react-types

Kind 2 String is designed to take the data structures output by extract-react-types and convert them to a (useful) string, as well as performing safe traversal through the output of extract-react-types so that trying to display information in your docs does not throw errors.

It exposes a convert method which allows you to ensure the data structure resolves to a string. It also exposes its converter object, allowing you to overwrite converters of your choice, if you wish to perform some other action other than the default string converter.

Default use-case:

import generatedData from './extract-react-type-write-location';
import convert from 'kind2string';

export default () => <div>convert(generatedData)</div>;

Also, if you are handling the kinds in a custom way, it is good to pass the final kind to kind2string, to ensure that you always pass a string to your react components.

For examples of how to use this, the @atlaskit/docs uses this package. A good pattern on how to implement kind2string can be found in the prettyproptypes file.
