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 🙏

Story of a Girl

A Babel plugin that replaces this with some lyrics.

Sorry. My hands were tied: https://twitter.com/luke_dot_js/status/876250000187170816

Usage

I dunno, I barely know what Babel is. I just followed a blog about it.

And at any rate, this is going to be a terrible idea to use in real code. Don't. The license says you can't sue me, right? Talk to your lawyer.

Anyway, run node run.js example.js and fiddle w/ example.js to see what happens. I assume this does awful things.

[colin:story-of-a-girl] [master] $ cat example.js
console.log(this);

function foo() {
  console.log(this);
}
[colin:story-of-a-girl] [master] $ node run.js example.js
console.log("The story of a girl Who cried a river and drowned the whole world And while she looks so sad in photographs I absolutely love her When she smiles");

function foo() {
  console.log("The story of a girl Who cried a river and drowned the whole world And while she looks so sad in photographs I absolutely love her When she smiles");
}
