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 🙏

Development

To enable live reload, first set the environment variable __VLT_INTERNAL_LIVE_RELOAD:

$ export __VLT_INTERNAL_LIVE_RELOAD=1

To start the esbuild dev server, run the gui watch script:

$ pnpm -F gui watch

In a separate terminal, run the app:

$ ./scripts/bins/vlt gui

Changes to src/gui will cause open browser windows to reload().

Note:

If the esbuild dev server is not running, then requests will fallback to the static asset like normal and message will be logged in the browser.

__VLT_INTERNAL_LIVE_RELOAD has no effect on production builds. The code is stripped by esbuild from both the GUI and the CLI.

See the contributing guide for more information on how to build and develop the various workspaces.
