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 🙏

Generate beautiful charts to evaluate surf conditions in San Diego

API Key

Unfortunately, this app requires an API key and its kind of a hassle to obtain one. You have to visit Magic Seaweed and then email [email protected] asking for a key. In the email you'll have to ask for access to 'Grandview' because this app is hardcoded to view data from the surf spot Grandview which is located in Encinitas, CA.

Demo

In order to view a demo, visit www.zaneobrien.com/SurfFinder/Surf.html

Details

Presumably, this data can be used a general weather forecast for Surf/Ocean conditions in San Diego because even though this data is queried for the beach 'Grandview' the information wont change significantly for all of San Diego. Basically if theres big waves breaking in North San Diego, there will be big waves breaking in South San Diego.

Local Build Setup
