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 🙏

Readme

wsl-enabler

One-click WSL activation for Windows. Get Linux ready in seconds.

Usage

npx wsl-enabler           # Check status & get guidance
npx wsl-enabler install   # Auto-install WSL + Ubuntu
npx wsl-enabler status    # Show detailed system status
npx wsl-enabler script    # Generate installation scripts
npx wsl-enabler tmux      # Install tmux in WSL

What it does

  1. Detects your Windows version and WSL status
  2. Enables WSL and Virtual Machine Platform features
  3. Installs Ubuntu Linux distribution
  4. Configures WSL2 as default (for better performance)

Example Output (Windows)

║║║╚═╗║    ║╣ │││├─┤├┴┐│  ├┤ ├┬┘
╚╩╝╚═╝╩═╝  ╚═╝┘└┘┴ ┴└─┘┴─┘└─┘┴└─

     Version: 10.0.22631
     ✓ WSL2 Support

  ✓ WSL Feature Enabled
  ✓ VM Platform Enabled

  Installed Distributions

  • Ubuntu (default) WSL2 Running

  ✓ Ready for IST!

Requirements

  • Windows 10 version 1903+ (Build 18362+) for WSL2
  • Administrator privileges for installation

Why?

Tools like IST (Integrated Session Tools) require tmux, which only runs on Linux/macOS. This tool helps Windows users get WSL set up quickly so they can use these tools.
