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.

Localflow

node-red-contrib-localflow

Localflow turns a native Node-RED group into a compact node. It provides an isolated editing view for creating templates, custom nodes and multi input nodes.

Features

Create no/low-code custom nodes.
Minimize/hide groups as a single (localflow) node.
Edit, maintain and adjust the localflow in a dedicated workspace.
Add multiple in- and ouputs to your node.
Configure the Localflow name, description, environment variables, colour, and appearance through the standard node editor.
Copy and paste a complete Localflow as one logical node.
Edit input and output names.

Behaviour

Create and select a group in your flow.
Right-click the group and choose Create localflow.
The group is hidden and replaced visually by a compact Localflow node.
Open the node's properties and choose Edit localflow to edit its contents.
Use the Inputs and Outputs controls in the Localflow toolbar to add or remove ports.

Input and output boundary nodes pass messages through unchanged. The localflow uses Node-RED native features, nodes and functions. You can uninstall the plugin and maintain a working flow.

Requirements

Node-RED 5.0 or newer
Node.js 22.9 or newer
