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 🙏

v0.2.2

Published

Modular HTML without the JavaScript

Readme

Changes in 0.2.0

Add the following to the Features list:

  • Data Binding - Render elements from local JSON data with data-src

Add this new section after the With Props section:

With Data (JSON)

Render an element once per item in a JSON array using data-src:

<element src="product-card.html" data-src="./src/data/products.json" />

Each object in the array is passed as props to the element template:

src/data/products.json:

[
  {
    "name": "Handmade Ceramic Vase",
    "price": "$120",
    "image": "/images/vase.jpg",
    "paymentLink": "https://buy.stripe.com/xxx",
    "sold": ""
  },
  {
    "name": "Original Oil Painting",
    "price": "$450",
    "image": "/images/painting.jpg",
    "paymentLink": "https://buy.stripe.com/yyy",
    "sold": "true"
  }
]

src/elements/product-card.html:

<div class="product-card">
  <img src="{{image}}" alt="{{name}}" />
  <h2>{{name}}</h2>
  <p>{{price}}</p>
  <a href="{{paymentLink}}">Buy Now</a>
</div>

Props and slots work alongside data-src. Any props defined directly on the element are merged with each data item, with data item values taking precedence.


Add this to the Configuration options interface:

interface HtmlElementsOptions {
  debug?: boolean; // Enable verbose logging (default: false)
  basePath?: string; // Base path for deployment (default: '/')
  srcDir?: string; // Source directory for HTML files (default: 'src')
  defaults?: boolean; // Use opinionated structure (default: true)
  routes?: RouteConfig[]; // Route manifest (optional)
}

Add this to the FAQ section:

Can I use data-src with props and slots? Yes. Props defined on the element are merged with each data item. Slots also work as normal. Data item values take precedence over static props of the same name.

What format does the JSON file need to be? A top-level array of objects. Each object's keys map directly to {{propName}} placeholders in your element template.

Can I use data-src for non-product use cases? Yes — any repeated element like blog post listings, team members, testimonials, or navigation items works the same way.


Update the Use Cases section to add:

  • 🛍️ Product catalogs from JSON data
