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 🙏

:question: What is bolt?

bolt is the Universal Project Runner that runs Docker containers, child processes, or even encapsulate your entire project within a VM, all under one unified API.

Below's brief overview of bolt's architecture -

Bolt Architecture

:thinking: Why bolt?

Running projects locally requires running system services and using system resources.

For eg: A project may need to run a Postgres instance, an iOS simulator and a Node watcher & bundler.

It can get cumbersome when you set up everything manually because you may need a Docker instance for the Postgres, a child process on the host machine to boot the iOS simulator and another child process for the Node packager. The Node packager can also run as a Docker instance.

And when you run all these, the host machine may slow down and you may have to move things inside a VM. Bolt solves all those problems with a unified API for managing services (boot, kill, restart, fetch logs).

Below's brief overview of how bolt's architecture designed to help in such scenarios -

Why Bolt?

:fire: Features

  • Allows you to run multiple services from a single project on different environments
  • You can run a service on your host machine locally or within Bolt's prepared virtual machine
  • Auto-detection helps you quickly get started with the Bolt file configuration
  • Available environments include:
    • Host machine's local environment
    • Host machine's Docker environment
    • Virtual machine's local environment
    • Virtual machine's Docker environment
  • Includes the log command to monitor and print logs from processes, Docker containers, or virtual machines
  • Facilitates access to your project's virtual machine
