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 🙏

re-app-builder

Preconfigured webpack packaged as library. Instead of cloning some "boilerplate project", install this as dev dependency and easily start your frontend project.

Usage

Install re-app-builder into your project or start in an empty directory!

$ yarn add --dev re-app-builder

Add re-app-builder script to your package.json

// package.json
{
    "scripts": {
        "re-app-builder": "node ./node_modules/re-app-builder/bin"
    }
}

Extend your .babelrc like this, create it if you don't have one already.

// .babelrc
{
    "extends": "re-app-builder/configs/.babelrc"
}

Create your webpack.config.js.

// webpack.config.js
// This config is webpack-compatible
// and overrides the defaults provided by re-app-builder
module.exports = function () {
	return {
		entry: { // webpack compatible entry section
			app: [
				'./src'
			]
		},
		excludedModules: [ // you can exclude modules from vendor bundle to avoid conflicts
			'koa',
			'koa-ejs'
		],
	}
};

With the configuration above, ./src/index.js will be used as an entry point of your app and ./public/build/app.js will be generated as an output.

Start development server by running the script you added earlier with dev command

$ npm run re-app-builder dev

Profit. Whenever you change source code, the app is automatically reloaded. The app is served at 127.0.0.1:8080 in default html template

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        ... snip ...
    </head>
    <body>
        <div id="root"></div> <!-- for example mount your react app here -->
        ... snip ...
    </body>
</html>

Or you can just use generated bundle in your own template:

http://127.0.0.1:8080/build/app.js

that file is not actually created on disk and is only served from memory by webpack. To generate static production build, do

$ npm run re-app-builder build

it will create minified static files ./public/build/app.js and ./public/build/app.css

Whenever you need the static build but non-minified, set NODE_ENV=development

$ NODE_ENV=development npm run re-app-builder build
