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 🙏

Finch.js

Powerfully Simple Javascript Routing

Finch.js is a whole new take on handling routes in javascript web apps. It utilizes the natural hierarchy of routes, simplified pattern matching, and powerful parameter dependencies in order to speed up and organize web apps that rely highly on interecting with the browser's url.

Installation

First, Download Finch.js

Once you've gotten the files, simply include the javascript in your html <head/>> tags.

<!doctype html>
<html>
	<head>
		<script src="./scripts/finch.min.js" type="text/javascript" language="javascript"></script>
	</head>
	<body>
		... Stuff here ...
	</body>
</html>

Since Finch is a standalone library, this is all you'll need. From here, take a look at our website for more info on how to implement Finch.

TODO List

  • Splats - Sometimes we might want an undetermined number of parameters at the end of a url, splats are useful for grabbing any number of url bindings and must be the last binding in the route pattern. Example: "/home/news/:variables..."
  • pushState - Add pushstate support to finch so that we don't always need to rely on the hash
