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 🙏

Readme

lovelang-runtime

Cross-platform npm wrapper for the Lovelang interpreter.

YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@clixiya

On install, this package detects your OS/CPU and downloads the matching Lovelang binary from GitHub releases.

If download is skipped during install (for example in CI), the lovelang command will auto-download the correct binary on first run.

Install

npm install -g lovelang-runtime

Then run:

lovelang --help
lovelang ./examples/01-romantic-hello.love

From any folder:

lovelang /full/path/to/project/examples/01-romantic-hello.love

How It Works

  1. postinstall resolves your platform (darwin, linux, win32) and arch (x64, arm64).
  2. It builds a GitHub release URL for the right asset.
  3. It downloads the binary into vendor/bin/ inside this package.
  4. The lovelang bin script forwards your CLI args to that binary.
  5. If the binary is missing at runtime, it is fetched automatically before executing your file.

Expected Release Asset Names

  • lovelang-darwin-x64
  • lovelang-darwin-arm64
  • lovelang-linux-x64
  • lovelang-linux-arm64
  • lovelang-win32-x64.exe
  • lovelang-win32-arm64.exe

Environment Variables

  • LOVELANG_GITHUB_OWNER (default: clixiya)
  • LOVELANG_GITHUB_REPO (default: lovelang)
  • LOVELANG_GITHUB_TAG (default: latest)
  • LOVELANG_DOWNLOAD_BASE_URL (optional) : If set, installer uses <base-url>/<asset-name> directly.
  • LOVELANG_GITHUB_TOKEN (optional) : Added as Authorization: Bearer <token> for private/rate-limited downloads.
  • LOVELANG_SKIP_DOWNLOAD=1 : Skips postinstall download.
  • LOVELANG_FORCE_DOWNLOAD=1 : Re-downloads even if binary already exists.
  • LOVELANG_BIN_PATH (runtime override) : Use a custom local binary path when running lovelang.

Development

npm test
npm run clean

Notes

  • This package is scaffolding for publishing/CI workflows.
  • Release upload automation can be added in the next step when you ask to prepare for GitHub upload.
  • For best user experience, keep GitHub release assets published for all supported targets listed above.
