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 🙏

A new standard for Web Development

Readme

WON

Web Object Notation

Introduction

Won is a multi purpose HTML/CSS to JSON (and vice-versa) converting tool. It is very useful for various applications in the field of web development, for example it helps a lot in web pages parsing and modification in some tedious languages like C, because all you have to do is use an easy JSON. I made WON because recently, while making a web scraping project with C++, I noticed that in languages like this is very difficult to get a code (and human) friendly representation of an HTML page. (It is also my very first Open Source Project!)

How is it made?

It is currently made in Node.JS, using htmlparser2 (go check their repo, this is an awesome Node Package) because this was the fastest implementation for HTML parsing on the NPM scenario.

(For the CSS Parsing I was struggling a bit, then I found an answer on Stack Overflow with a pretty decent already made algorithm for CSS parsing, so I said "Why not?". I just increased the readability of the code, but the algorithm is took from that answer.)

How does CLI works

It is currently a CLI utility and a JS library. Alongside the JS version, other languages binding will be developed.

Using won -hj pathToFile.html you will get a JSON output file, structured like a valid WON Object. Using won -jh pathToFile.json you will get a HTML file. Same for CSS, but use a c instead of the h (example: won -cj pathToFile.css). Add -o outputName.o to determine a name for the output file.

How does JS binding works

Alongside the JS version, other languages binding will be developed.

Example code

const won = require("won");
let exampleHTML = `
<html>
    <head>
        <title>Test</title>
    <head>
</html>
`
let wonObject = won.HTMLtoJSON(exampleHTML);
console.log(wonObject.children[0].children[0].text); // Test

In the next paragraph, there is the correct WON Object Structure. For more documentation on functions, parameters and return types, check won.js.

Comparison

HTML | JSON :----:|:-----:  |

JSON is quite longer than the HTML document, but it can be easily read by most languages

How to install

Currently, is supported manual installation, and NPM installation.

NPM Installation:

  1. In terminal, write sudo npm install won-js -g
  2. Enjoy!

Manual Installation:

  1. In terminal, write git clone https://github.com/GianlucaTarantino/won.git (or just download the repo)
