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 🙏

xDice - Simple Dice Randomizer for Gamers

Want a quick way to add simulated dice rolls into your app? Have a RPG mind? Do you think about dice in game terms, like roll 1D6, and roll 1D20?

Then this is the module for you;)

Install

npm install xdice

Usage

And include into your project

var roll = require('xdice');

Now to roll dem-bones

roll('1d6'); //5
roll('1d20'); //16

How about a bunch of dice

roll('4D6'); // 12

Bunch of different dice?

roll('4d6') + roll('1d4'); // 14

But I want PIPS!!! Ok, simple, same as above

roll('1d6') + 2; // 7

Behind the scenes xDice gets a collection of results and returns the sum of those results, but if you want the result array you can get that too

roll('4d6', true); // [4,5,2,1]

Run Tests

npm test
