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 🙏

Build & Deploy

Norfolk.js Website

This repository contains the source code for Norfolk.js's user group website. We strongly encourage everyone to contribute as much or little as they wish. Not a developer? We can use documentation and design help as well!

This website is built using handlebars and some custom js to build a static website. This site is hosted using GitHub Pages on Github.

How do I get started?

Local development setup

Install the http-server tool

npm install -g http-server nodemon npm install

Run in development mode

npm run dev

Development mode serves the site on the fly, generating pages on the fly.

Then, you can access the site locally by going to https://localhost:4000 in your web browser.

Build the static site in the build folder

npm run build

Builds a static copy of the site in the build directory.

Deploy the build folder and contents to the gh-pages branch and push updates

npm run deploy

TODO: Run this in a github action when a PR is merged.

Project structure

The repo has four folders:

/static

Contains static files. e.g. images, js, css, etc. Assets in this directory will be served at root path / during dev, and copied to the root of the build directory as-is.

/templates

Contains the handlebars.js templates.

/src

Contains the server side javascript that builds the website and runs the site in dev mode.

/content

Contains the files for which pages are built from. The directory structure in this folder directly results in the site structure. Can include the html, handlebars.js templates, markdown, or txt files.

For example:

| Content File Path | Browser URL Path | Static File Path Builds | | -------------------- | ------------------ | ----------------------------- | | index.html | / | /index.html | | blog/index.html | /blog | /blog/index.html | | blog/post-title.md | /blog/post-title | /blog/post-title/index.html | | about/index.html | /about | /about/index.html | | about/people.txt | /about/people | /about/people/index.html |

Meta Header

Content files may optionally contain a meta header. Started with jekyllrb with some customizations.

---
template: post
title: Norfolk.js meetup kickoff
tags: javascript, meetup, norfolk
published: true
excerpt: The kickoff meetup for the Norfolk.js group.
---

The only properties that the site builder uses are the title property and the template property. The title property sets the document title. If the template prop isn't set the default template is used. All the values in the header can be used in the handlebars templates.
