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 🙏

When you need shit to help you get shit done

Readme

Re:Base Installer

When you need shit to help you get shit done

So I said over in the rebase readme file that you don't need an installer. You don't. You don't need this shit at all. Don't fucking clutter your system with yet another thing that you're not gonna use.

Fuck you don't tell me what I don't need

Alright man chill! You wanna use this go for it.

Installing this shit

Ok, first things first, this is a global installer. You can't run this local to your project because this will literally install your project. Don't even ask for that feature. It would have to literally eat itself to work that way. Do this:

$ npm install rebase-installer -g #global bitches

So let it do its thing, it won't take long. Once it's done you're ready to start using it.

Usage

There's literally one command here. I didn't even make a --help because that would have taken more time than I gave a shit to do for this thing.

$ re:new <folder> --<yarn|npm>

By default I assume you use NPM, but you can use yarn if you'd like too.

That's it.

Can you give me an example of using this shit?

Yeah, ok. Assume you want to install a new Re:Base project on a folder called sites that happens to be located in your users folder on your computer. Here's what you do:

$ cd ~/sites
# from the ~/sites folder
$ re:new silly-project

Done. That's it.

Now you'll have a new folder called ~/sites/silly-project with all your shit ready to go.

What about yarn?

$ re:new silly-project --yarn

What about if I'm already in the folder?

Srly?

$ re:new

That'll just drop everything in an empty folder.

What about...

Oy! Yes!

$ re:new --yarn

That uses yarn and drops everything in the current directory.

What if I have something in that folder already?

Nope. The installer will kick you out. The folder needs to be empty, we're not going to overwrite stuff you gotta manually clone the rebase project in this case.

Fin.
