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 🙏

Getting Started

Prerequisites

I'm pretty sure you need Webpack for this to work on your browser.

Installing

Make sure you have npm installed by going to the root directory of your project and typing the following CLI command:

npm init -y

Then install this project using the following CLI command:

npm i @stuvascript/dropdown-thang

To Use

HTML

In your HTML file, you need:

  1. An element to have the class of drop-down-target. This is where you can put your content subject that will have the menu drop down below it.
  2. A child element of that element needs to have a class of drop-down-box.
  3. And a child element of that element needs to have a class of drop-down-list. Inside this element you can place all your child elements and their content that need to be displayed in the dropdown.

Here is an example that you can copy and paste into your HTML file and edit however you like:

<div class="drop-down-target">
      Hamburger
      <div class="drop-down-box">
        <ul class="drop-down-list">
          <li>pickles</li>
          <li>buns</li>
          <li>lettuce</li>
          <li>ketchup</li>
        </ul>
      </div>
    </div>

    <div class="drop-down-target">
      <div class="drop-down-box">
        <ul class="drop-down-list">
          <li>doberman</li>
          <li>chihuahua</li>
          <li>boxer</li>
          <li>greyhound</li>
          <li>labrador</li>
        </ul>
      </div>
      <span>dogs</span>
    </div>

    <div class="drop-down-target">
      places
      <div class="drop-down-box">
        <div class="drop-down-list">
          <p>Paris</p>
          <span>London</span>
          <div>Rome</div>
          <p>Oklahoma</p>
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>

To Style

In your CSS file, you can copy and paste the following code to make changes to how it's styled:

.drop-down-box {
  background: white;

  line-height: 1.5rem;
  border-radius: 5px;
  box-shadow: 2px 2px 15px rgb(2, 2, 2);
}

.drop-down-list {
