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 🙏

Readme

Squid User Interface Development

Squid User Interface Development is a component framework built by half human, half undersea monkey programmers. The key features guiding the development of Squid are interoperabilty and simplicity. We built Squid.js to create applications with reusable components and controllers, that are neatly tucked into their own namespaces.

Why Squid.js

Squid.js was built for creating complex web applications by breaking down applications into independent and interoperable components. As much as possible we try to keep HTML, Javascript and CSS clean. If you don't like seeing HTML inside your Javascript, or CSS inside your HTML, or Javascript inside your HTML, or (you get the point), this is the framework for you. If you do like doing that, we wont stop you, this could still be the framework for you.

Getting Started

To get started just add a reference to the Squid.js file in the header of your document. Please read the Squid Documentation for a complete guide on creating your first application.

Application Structure

Use the Visual Studio Code Extension

We've built an extension for Visual Studio that will help you create your Squid.js applications.

Abstract

In the previous versions of Squid we encountered some difficulties with namespace cluttering, dirty syntax, and poorly constructed data binding. We looked to different frameworks for solutions but most of what is available did not suit the style with which we coded. We wanted to keep our HTML, Javascript and CSS as clean as possible. We didnt like cross contamination of the three. So we decided to do one last recode of the whole framework. The goal was to solve all our problems with the past versions, make it public, and continuosly update with the latest tech.
