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 🙏

$ links --footer="by <a href=http://juliangruber.com/>Julian Gruber</a>"

How it works

You start writing and get a public link. You send that link to someone and they see your content. As soon as they start editing themselves they get their own link which they can share again.

As long as you keep your tab open you can edit without getting a new link.

Running

You need at least node 0.11.0 to run this.

For production:

$ sudo npm install -g links
$ cd dir/to/put/the/db/in
$ links

For development:

$ git clone [email protected]:juliangruber/links.git && cd links
$ npm install
$ sudo npm link
$ links

CLI

  • --port, -p The port to run on
  • --footer Footer html to display
  • --db The path to the db, or hostname:port address to the multilevel server to connect to

TODO

  • setup public instance
  • add saving indicator
  • evaluate storage mechanisms for the token

Behind the scenes

Using koa for http, leveldb for the database and component for client side javascript.
