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 🙏

Troubles with jsdom

JSDOM is supposed to be a library that implements webbrowser DOM, so that we can use and test browser-like behaviour in node. It's quite a good solution, if it wasn't for the fact that we already encountered two bugs in JSDOM, which caused us a lot of trouble and worry.

  1. window.getComputedStyle() doesn't take the specificity of selectors into account. At the time of writing the issue was still unresolved: https://github.com/jsdom/jsdom/issues/3318. Bug found in writing unit tests for view, we were trying to test whether certain decorations are applied and getComputedStyle() failed to return the proper values. We had to create a workaround, simply we didn't use CSS specificity for the values, which is an anti-pattern.
  2. document.createRange() is improperly implemented, resulting in getClientRects() not being defined somewhat arbitrarily. It would seam that it related to time and frame capturing in internal JSDOM implementations. The issue is still unresolved: https://github.com/jsdom/jsdom/issues/3002. We need to workaround this by disabling autocomplete checks in paste.test.js, which would work fine if it wasn't for the JSDOM bug.

Troubles with @codemirror

Package in @codemirror are not completely independent of one another. Often times, updating a version of one of them breaks something in the other. The silver lining is that the maintainers of code mirror, when releasing a change that can break something, very often release corresponding packages updates as well. That's why, it's a good idea to always update all of @codemirror dependencies at once, and never update them separately.
