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 🙏

⚡ GetID: A Lightweight Random ID Generator

A lightweight JavaScript utility to generate random IDs of any length.

Perfect for creating unique identifiers for users, sessions, or temporary tokens.

📦 Installation

Install via npm:

npm install getid-sq

⚠️ Important: ES Modules

This package uses ES Module syntax.

Make sure your project has "type": "module" in your package.json:

{ "type": "module" }

Without this, the following import will throw an error:

import GetID from "getid-sq";

🛠️ Usage

import GetID from "getid-sq";

const id = GetID(10); console.log(id); // e.g., "aB3@cD!1eF"

You can use it anywhere in your JavaScript project that supports ES Modules.

📖 API

GetID(length)

Generates a random string of the specified length.

Parameter

Type

Description

Required

length

number

Length of the ID.

Yes

Returns:

string: A random string containing letters, numbers, and special characters.

Examples:

GetID(5); // "a1!bC" GetID(12); // "A!2cD@3fG!1" GetID(20); // "r@nd0m!ch@r@ct3rs!"

📝 Notes

The function includes letters (a-z, A-Z), numbers (0-9), and special characters like @, !, #, %, &, etc.

The generated ID is random on each call.

Remember to set "type": "module" in your package.json to use import syntax.

✨ Quick Tips

Use this function for temporary passwords, session tokens, unique keys, or anywhere random strings are needed.

Adjust the length parameter to control the size of the ID.
