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 🙏

Incompatibility of global CSS Selectors and Components results in various ways we style our Components. It devides our community into 3 categories:

Readme

Standard for Theming

This is a standard for theming of components. Developers and especially publishers of components should use it to unify their theming API across all components.

Currently a number of UI libraries are using different approaches. Some of them are very opinionated and bad by design, others just don't have the desired flexibility.

We can differentiate 3 approaches:

  1. Traditional CSS class names.
  2. Generated CSS class names.
  3. Inline Styles.

In order to allow component authors to use any of this approaches, we need to define a Theme Interface.

Theme Styles vs. System Styles

A Component author needs to differentiate System Styles from Theme Styles. More styles in a Theme means more flexibility for the user. System styles should be used for parts of components which can not or should not be customizable.

A Theme should define:

  1. Font
  2. Colors
  3. Images
  4. Text direction
  5. Shadows
  6. Rounded Corners
  7. Animations
  8. Margins
  9. Paddings

When components logic uses some Theme property, it should be a Theme Option.

Development

This is an early stage proposal. Feel free to create issues and discribe use cases. Also feel free to make the wording better.
