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 🙏

unthrow

Build Status Dependencies Status

JavaScript Promises are awesome, but they have a fundamental issue: When you use a Promise, you mix up your asynchronicity-handling code with your error-handling code through .catch. Unthrow fixes this, making you free to handle possible errors wherever you want to.

Usage

Just wrap your calls to Promise-returning function which may fail with unthrow. The result of an unthrowed call is a new Promise which will yield a Result. A Result is a plain JavaScript object with a status field.

The value of the status field may be "Ok" or "Error".

If the value of status is "Ok", the Result will have a value field containing the result of the promise. If the value of status is "Error", the Result will have an error field containing the error thrown by the promise.
