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 🙏

Tinker with your bower and node modules!

Why

I often find myself editing modules directly in node_modules or bower_components. When I'm done, I need to merge my changes back into a library repo or to revert to a released state.

Tinker provides some easy mechanisms to switch back and forth between modules installed from your favorite package manager and a git repo.

Getting Started

  1. Install
$ npm install tinker -g
  1. Initialize
project$ tinker init
  1. Start tinkering! (copy .git folder or git clone)
project$ tinker on module_name
project$ tinker on 'start_of_name*'

Prompts will help you protect your work.

  1. Execute commands on your modules
project$ tinker module_name gulp watch
project$ tinker module_name git status
project$ tinker module_name gulp test; gulp watch
  1. Stop tinkering! (remove .git folder or clean install)
project$ tinker off module_name
