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 🙏

Getting Started

About Typesense & VitePress

Typesense is an open-source, lightning-fast search engine that delivers instant, typo-tolerant results with minimal setup. It's an open source alternative to Algolia and an easier-to-use alternative to ElasticSearch.

VitePress is a Static Site Generator (SSG) designed for building fast, content-centric websites.

Together, Typesense, VitePress and DocSearch provide a seamless way to add powerful, blazingly-fast search to modern websites.

Indexing Your Documentation

To enable search, your documentation content must be indexed into Typesense. You can choose between two methods:

  • Built-in Indexing (Recommended): The plugin automatically scans your generated HTML files and indexes them into Typesense whenever you run vitepress build. This is the easiest setup as it requires no external tools.

  • External Scraper: You can use the official typesense-docsearch-scraper. This is a crawler that visits your live documentation, extracts content (titles, headings, paragraphs), and pushes it to Typesense. This approach requires an automation pipeline (e.g., GitHub Actions).
