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.

javascript language vaderscript compiler

VaderScript

JavaScript is beautiful in its core simplicity, but heavily damaged by countless land mines that quickly turn your dreams into nightmares. What if you had the power to throw those mines away, move faster, while still having full access to the whole empire of exising libraries?

Why Yet Another JavaScript Transpiler?

Some other languages are "just JavaScript", or a "superset of JavaScript", or "not JavaScript", or have some limited "interop with JavaScript" ...

VaderScript could be described as "not just JavaScript", as it translates in a pretty straighforward way, but is not afraid to go one step further to maximize on the "good parts".

Syntax Example

None!

After spending a while designing the syntax and features, I realized that need to build a simple compiler first. Once I know I can build it, I'll come back to syntax and crazy features ...

Usage

Don't!

At this point this is just an experiment and should not be used.

Development

Clone repo and go to the project root folder.

Install dependencies:

npm install

Compile examples:

node lib/vader_command.js ./examples/hello_world.vader

The parser is made from the grammar using Pegjs. To make a new parser, fiddle with the grammar.pegjs file and then:

pegjs ./lib/grammar.pegjs parser.js
