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 🙏

Using pre-compiled ttf fonts

Pre-compiled binaries are supplied in the fonts folder.

The pre-compiled ttf fonts contain several enhancements that are not included when compiling source files yourself:

  • Variable TrueType hint instructions for better rendering on Windows;
  • Alternate forms for glyphs naira, won and fraction that are automatically shown when using particular widths;
  • A stat table containing names of all instances that is used to show these instances in font menus;
  • A meta table.

Building fonts from source

UFO source files are supplied in the sources folder.

Requirements

To build binary font files from the supplied UFO sources you need fontmake. Fonts in this release have been generated with fontmake 1.9.1.

Building

Run build.sh from the command line. This will compile both IBMPlexSansVar-Roman.ttf and IBMPlexSansVar-Italic.ttf in a new folder called variable_ttf.
