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 🙏

lazy-project-creation

v1.0.5

Published

CLI Tool, creates Projects in specified Workspaces and later on will create an online repository with the same name.

Readme

lazy-project-creation

$ npm i -g lazy-project-creation

lazy-project-creation creates a local project in a workspace of your choice. In addition it will initialize a local repository, and create a remote github repository with the same name and after your configuration. It will then proceed to create a .gitignore, add the remote, add files, setup an initial commit which it finally pushes.

The basic functionality as stated will be available in April. I am currently working on the github integration and it is nearly done!

Needs to be installed globally, works on Unix based Systems!!!

lazy-project-creation is my first cli tool provided as npm package: https://www.npmjs.com/settings/zettlrobert/packages

Setup and Configuration

  1. Install it globally!
  2. On it's first execution it will setup the needed configuration files, call it again to use!
  3. lazy-project-configuration uses a local configuration file, so your data stays with you!
  4. you need to configure and setup lazy-project-creation before using it to create projects
    1. you can edit the configuration file manually but it is recommended to use the tool (~/.config/lazy-project-creation/userConfig.json)
    2. to use the remote functionality you will have to add your github username and a personal access token.
  5. the default workspace is your home directory (change it according to your preferences)
  6. follow the configuration steps provided by lazy-project-creation
  7. use a complete, absolute path for each workspace
  8. to create a github repository and link it with your local project you need to provide a personal access token, it will only be stored in the config file on your system.
