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 🙏

ssb-current-events

v2.0.1

Published

*Current Events* from Wikipedia, every day at 00:07.

Readme

ssb-current-events

Current Events from Wikipedia, every day at 00:07.

Installation

Clone and satisfy NPM dependencies.

git clone https://gitlab.com/christianbundy/ssb-current-events.git
cd ssb-current-events
npm ci

Usage

You'll need an ssb-server (or similar) running in the background with the ssb-identities plugin installed. You can install with:

ssb-server plugins.install --name ssb-identities

In a perfect world you'd only need to restart your ssb-server, but you may need to manually edit your config.

You probably want some Markdown output every minute or so for testing.

npm test

Ready for production? If you have a key it will be used. Otherwise it will be created for you and stored in ~/.ssb/current-events.txt. Either way, you shouldn't have to worry about it.

npm start

Bingo bango bongo, you're doing the thing.

Support

Please open an issue for support.
