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 🙏

@politico/interactive-bin

JS Utilities used in the creation and distribution of interactive news at POLITICO.

Quick Start

Installation:

$ npm install -g @politico/interactive-bin

One-Time Setup (if you work at POLITICO, check out the POLITICO Onboarding Guide):

$ pib setup

Then you can use its commands by running:

$ pib <command> <...arguments>

Starting a New Interactive

To start a new interactive, make an empty directory.

$ mkdir MY_INTERACTIVE_NAME
$ cd MY_INTERACTIVE_NAME

Then run the new project command:

$ pib new project

Using the CLI

Once you have pib installed you can access the CLI's many commands. Check out those docs for more on what they are and how to use them.

Using PIB In Interactives

For the most part, the PIB CLI should only be used to create new projects. Once inside a PIB-made interactive you should switch to using the yarn commands that come with those PIB projects. This will ensure that all the files and folder paths are processed correctly.

For example,

yarn api newyarn new pageyarn pub

pib api newpib new pagepib publish

PIB has some (many) opinions on how to structure your projects. These are somewhat enforced with your starting template, but you can check out the projects docs for more.
