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

StealthJS Build Status Coverage Status

Stealth addresses are a new form of bitcoin addresses that solve the problem of address reuse.

They allow the sender to generate new addresses for the receiver, and sending without anyone watching the blockchain knowing the receiver is the owner of the original stealth address.

The required extra data for the receiver to know the transaction is for her is included in the blockchain together with the transaction by using the OP_RETURN instruction.

You can see how a stealth transaction looks like.

Note: OP_RETURN is just supported as standard in the bitcoin network in recent versions of the mining software, so not all miners will confirm or propagate the transactions, this means at this moment sometimes they can take a bit longer to confirm. Also you probably won't see the unconfirmed transaction, but this is more an issue in our obelisk interaction or in obelisk.

Installation

You can install it using npm:

$ npm install stealth.js --save

And require it as a node module or as AMD.
