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 🙏

Basic skin for matrix-react-sdk

Readme

matrix-react-skin

This package provides a basic skin and Matrix client using the matrix-react-sdk.

Getting started

To build and start a server serving the basic client:

  1. Install or update node.js so that your npm is at least at version 2.0.0
  2. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-react-skin.git
  3. Switch to the SDK directory: cd matrix-react-sdk
  4. Install the prerequisites: npm install
  5. Build the example and start a server: npm start

Now open http://127.0.0.1:8080/ in your browser to see your newly built Matrix client.

Components of This Package

This package comprises the following:

  • A basic skin in src/skins/base. This contains the HTML (in React JSX) and CSS that's presented in the client. This matches the controller logic in matrix-react-sdk.
  • The containing app source in src/app. The index.js file here imports matrix-react-sdk and loads the base skin from this package. It then asks the sdk for the MatrixChat component and uses React to render it into the page.
  • The bootstrap HTML for the app in index.html. This imports the javascript bundle file that gets built in the build process as well as the CSS bundle file. It contains basic skeleton HTML and an element where the app gets rendered.
  • The package manifest and build instructions in package.json. This contains all the commands used for building the source files, javascript and CSS bundles.
  • The webpack config in webpack.config.json which contains the basic parameters webpack needs to build the bundled javascript.

Building On Top of matrix-react-skin

See the README.md file in matrix-react-sdk for more on making an application with the react SDK and basic skin. An example of building a derived skin, is provided in examples/custom and explained in examples/custom/README.md.
