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 🙏

Description

Collection of classic computer science paradigms, algorithms, and approaches written in JavaScript. This is the source code for the series of blog posts on my website.

Folder Structure

The most recent packages are found in these directories:

  • src - the implementation source code
  • tests - tests for the implementation source code

These directories contain old implementations that will be replaced eventually, they are just here to avoid confusing people who find this repo through the old blog posts:

  • data-structures - data structure implementations that have not been updated yet
  • encodings - encoding implementations that have not been updated yet
  • algorithms - miscellanous algorithm implementations that have not been updated yet

As I update these, implementations will move from these folders into src.

Branches

  • 2009 - the branch containing all of the original implementations as reflected in my 2009 blog post series.
  • master - the branch where I'm updating the original implementations to use ECMAScript 2018 and later features.

Installing

You must be using Node.js v8 or later.

First, clone the repo:

$ git clone git://github.com/humanwhocodes/computer-science-in-javascript.git
$ cd computer-science-in-javascript

Then install the dependencies:

$ npm install

You can then run tests like this:

$ npm test

Updated Blog Posts (2019)

These are the most recent blog posts covering the most recent version of the code.

Data Structures

Original Blog Posts

At some point I will update these blog posts for the new implementations. For now, they still refer only to the 2009 version of this code.

Note on Code Style

You may find the code style of this module to be overly verbose with a lot of comments. That is intentional, as the primary use of this module is intended to be for educational purposes. There are frequently more concise ways of implementing the details of this class, but the more concise ways are difficult for newcomers who are unfamiliar with linked lists as a concept or JavaScript as a whole.

Issues and Pull Requests

As this is part of series of tutorials I'm writing, only bug fixes will be accepted. No new functionality will be added to this module.
