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 🙏

react-sketchbook

v0.1.2

Published

Early stage CLI tool for staging react components with a zero config webpack dev server (based on create-react-app).

Readme

React sketchbook (ALPHA)

Early stage CLI tool for staging react components with a zero config webpack dev server (based on create-react-app).

  • Based off of create-react-app with added support for css modules
  • Currently the tool does nothing else than mount the default

Install with npm

npm install react-sketchbook 

How it works

The React-Sketchbook CLI takes one argument (a filename). It injects the default export of given file into the staging environment and does nothing else (right now).

So given a module like this:

// some-react-component.js
const SomeComponent = () => (
  <div>Hello World</div>
);

export default SomeComponent;

You can point the cli at the file above

sketch ./some-react-component.js

React-Sketchbook will render the component in staging environment.

Usage

Basic usage

sketch some-react-component.js

Add root paths

If you include other folders than node_modules in your paths you can add them with the -p option, separated by comma:

sketch some-react-component.js -p ../local_modules,../lib

That way if you have a module in ../local_modules/some-module.js you can import it like this:

import someModule  from 'some-module';
