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 🙏

@financial-times/dotcom-ui-base-styles

This new package provides the global document styles for FT.com, including normalisation styles, basic typography, focus states, and o-grid.

Please note the initial goal of this package is to centralise all of the required pieces for the progressive font loading technique provided by o-typography and create a placeholder for the future inclusion of global styles from n-ui-foundations.

Getting started

This package is compatible with Node 12+ and is distributed on npm.

npm install --save @financial-times/dotcom-ui-base-styles

After installing the package you can use it to embed the progressive font loading hooks and document styles into your pages on the server-side and initialise the font loading on client-side.

Server-side

If you are using React to render your app you should use the LoadFontsEmbed component along with the loadCustomFontsClassNames and documentStyles variables to integrate font loading and document styles with your pages:

import {
  documentStyles
  LoadFontsEmbed,
  loadCustomFontsClassNames
} from '@financial-times/dotcom-ui-base-styles'

export default (props) => (
  <html className={loadCustomFontsClassNames} style={documentStyles}>
    <head>
      <meta charSet="utf-8" />
      <title>My Amazing Website</title>
      <LoadFontsEmbed />
    </head>
    <body>
      ...
    </body>
  </html>
)

Otherwise you can insert the code snippet into a <script> element:

const {
  documentStyles
  loadCustomFontsJS,
  loadCustomFontsClassNames
} = require('@financial-times/dotcom-ui-base-styles')

function page() {
  return `<!DOCTYPE html>
    <html className=${loadCustomFontsClassNames} style=${documentStyles}>
    <head>
      <meta charset="utf-8">
      <title>My Amazing Website</title>
      <script>${loadCustomFontsJS}</script>
    </head>
    <body>
      ...
    </body>
  </html>`
}

Client-side

Once you are rendering the styles, class names, and code snippets in your page you will need to initialise the client-side code.

To initialise the client-side JavaScript import the package and call the .init() method:

import * as baseStyles from '@financial-times/dotcom-ui-base-styles'

baseStyles.init()

This component also provides styles written in Sass which should be imported into your application's main Sass stylesheet:

@import '@financial-times/dotcom-ui-base-styles/styles';
