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 🙏

Night Owl

Version License Build status Coverage

Read the docs here.

Night Owl is a simple, elegant and fast static site generator for node.js.

Night Owl has a long list of features --- file-based routing, custom URLs, front-matter, tagging and collections, sorting, paginated indexes, nested layouts, multi-page templates, custom compilers, file watching, a local development server, live reloads, ECMAScript module imports, and more.

Support for a number of different template formats is also included. Generate HTML pages from Markdown, Pug, Handlebars, JavaScript, JSON and YAML. Use the built-in CSS, Sass, JavaScript and Typescript compilers to bundle files ready for the browser.

npm install night-owl

Is this ready to use?

Night Owl is still a work in progress. Although most features are now implemented and the API is relatively stable, some bugs can still be expected. Minor versions may include breaking changes before reaching a stable v1.0.0.

Why not use another tool?

The driving purpose behind Night Owl is to provide a fast tool to develop static sites, with a focus on the Pug templating language. Pug's minimalist syntax comes at the cost of slow template compilation. Where some static site generators recompile templates every time any file changes, Night Owl waits for a specific template (or its dependencies) to change.

Night Owl also provides support for bundling client-side CSS and JavaScript without any extra configuration. Modern tools often force you to buy in to a complex and often unnecessary framework. Others require you to roll your own Rollup or Webpack configuration in addition to setting up your site.

Night Owl aims to to strike the right balance between flexibility and simplicity, providing enough to get you started without getting in the way.
