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 🙏

Stateful Dead

A dead-simple object-oriented state container to store and announce the state changes of your app. state is one object with the state changes as property-value pairs.

Methods

logState() : log the state object to console

getState(stateChange) : return the current value of the specified state change

getPreviousState(stateChange) : return the previous value of the specified state change (the state object stores the two latest values for each state change property)

setState(stateChange, value) : set the state change to the specified value

Parameters: stateChange is a string referring to a new or existing property of the state object; value can be whatever: a string, object, array, so on. It's often just a string, but the value will be announced as the data of messages published by the PubSub module, so it is often useful to pass set the value as an object or array.

A state change is announced by the PubSub module, and you can subscribe other functions in your code to that message. That way function A can anounce a state change and function B can react to that change. If you later swap out function B for function C, you don't have to make any changes to function A to keep things working.
