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 🙏

Forking Edge

Fly Edge

npm version isc license Build Status Gitter

The Fly Edge project is a set of APIs for routing HTTP traffic, cache content, and add "middleware" (like auth) to any application. It's written in TypeScript and runs on the Fly Edge runtime. It's built for developers — that means runs locally, has a tests, and integrate into a CI/release pipeline.

The code targets the Service Worker API and uses the Fly runtime API where necessary. You can deploy it to fly.io hosting or run it on any platform with an Edge Service Worker implementation (with reduced features).

Getting Started

Pre-requisites

  • yarn (npm install -g yarn)
  • Node 10.x
  • node-gyp: https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp#installation

Try the starter app

git clone https://gist.github.com/ebc48856b74fde392a6d62a032b59a97.git forking-edge
cd forking-edge
yarn install
yarn start # visit http://localhost:3000

Once you have that running, try swapping in a different origin. Edit index.ts and and replace backends.origin("https://getting-started.edgeapp.net") with backends.githubPages("superfly/landing").

Deploy to production

You can deploy edge apps to the Fly hosting service using the CLI. Sign up at fly.io, then run:

yarn fly login
yarn fly app create <name-of-your-app>
yarn fly deploy

You can also run on CloudFlare or StackPath, though not all features will work.

Features

Straightforward TypeScript/ JavaScript API

You can do a lot with a single index.ts file. This example redirects all requests to https and caches content when possible:

import { backends, middleware, pipeline } from "@fly/edge";

// user middleware for https redirect and caching
const mw = pipeline(
  middleware.httpsUpgrader,
  middleware.httpCache
)

// point it at the origin
const app = mw(
  backends.origin("https://getting-started.edgeapp.net")
);

// respond to http requests
fly.http.respondWith(app);

Backends

Backends are origin services you can route requests to. The project includes a backend type any HTTP service, and more specialized types for proxying to third party services.

Want to help out? Write a new backend type and open a pull request!

Middleware

Middleware applies logic to requests before they're sent to the backend, and responses before they're sent to users.

Development

See CONTRIBUTING.

Configuration vs code

The Fly Edge can be run standalone with a yaml based configuration schema. If you prefer to run with a config file, check out the config README.
