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 🙏

Readme

libui-node

Node.js bindings for libui library.

libui is a lightweight, portable GUI library that uses the native GUI technologies of each platform it supports.

It is in early stage of development, but is evolving at great pace and is really awesome. It could become an awesome alternative to Electron to develop multiplatform GUI, expecially suited to develop small apps.

libui prebuilt binaries are automatically downloaded after install.

If you get this error on Windows:

you need to install latest npm version:

$ npm i -g npm

see this node-gyp issue for more details.

Documentation & examples

Documentation is in docs folder. You can also find working examples in examples folder.

How to run the examples

First, you have to clone the GitHub repo and npm install it:

git clone https://github.com/parro-it/libui-node.git
npm install

Then, to run the control gallery example (requires Node.js >= 6), type:

npm start

For the core api, example, type:

npm run start-core

To run other examples:

node <path to example file>

Contribution & design

  • Each libui control implementation is written in it's own C++ file in src folder.
  • Each control is implemented in it's own C++ class, each class is a simple wrapper of related libui C functions.
  • Header files are in src/includes folder.
  • Control events does not follow node convention: if you attach an handler to an event, previous one will be overwritten and never be called.
  • We build the project using the awesome nbind tool, that automate the process of linking a straight C++ class to Node.js stuff...
