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 🙏

Math expression parser and evaluator

Fast and small (less than 2KB minified and gzipped) zero-dependency math expression parser and evaluator.

import evaluate from '@emmetio/math-expression';

console.log(evaluate('2 * (-3 + 5)')); // 4

Motivation

In JavaScript, you can use built-in eval() function to evaluate expressions:

console.log(eval('2 * (-3 + 5)')); // 4

But in most modern JavaScript environments eval() function is considered harmful since it can evaluate any arbitrary JS code. And in some cases (like in Atom editor) it’s disabled by default due to security reasons.

With @emmetio/math-expression module you can safely parse & evaluate basic math expressions in any JS environment.

Extract expression from text

This module is used by Emmet project to evaluate math expression in-place in code source. A default user workflow is to enter math expression somewhere in source code and run action to evaluate it. You can use extract function to extract math expression from given source code, starting at specified position:

import evaluate, { extract } from '@emmetio/math-expression';

const code = 'Here goes math: 2 + 3 foo bar';
const [start, end] = extract(code, 21); // 16, 21
const expr = code.substring(start, end); // 2 + 3
console.log(evaluate(expr)); // 5
