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 🙏

sunpack

v0.0.2

Published

Sunpack: like snowpack but far worse. Convert/move npm dependencies so they work in the browser.

Readme

Sunpack: like snowpack but far worse.

Sunpack converts or moves your npm dependencies from the node_modules directory to a directory you specify to make them usable in the browser.

Sunpacks works the following way:

  • If your npm dependency is an es6 module, it copies the .js files from its node_modules folder to the output folder you specify. It can also compress the output using terser.
  • If your npm dependency is a common js module, it uses browserify to convert it for use in the browser and outputs it to the folder specified. It can also compress the output using tinify.
  • If your npm dependency comes with a ready made file for use in the browser, it will just copy that to the specified folder.

FAQ

  • Has this been thouroughly tested?
    • No!
  • When should I use this?
    • When you are not using a bundler like wepback, rollup et.al.
