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 🙏

Stacks

Flexible automation of some common AWS tasks. Hopes to make CloudFormation a bit less painful for humans.

Who should use this?

Nobody, really. It's still barely half-baked. And not properly tested or documented.

What does it do?

Stacks was born out of a need to deploy web apps to AWS.

Project goals:

  • Simple configuration
  • Flexible project structures
  • Flexible naming schemes
  • Repeatable build / deploy / redeploy / teardown
  • Support for multiple environments (dev/test/prod)
  • Cross-stack references across environments
  • Built on CloudFormation (hence "Stacks")
  • Provide sensible default configs where possible

Target capabilities:

  • S3

    • create / delete buckets
    • upload / sync files
    • configure basic web hosting
  • Lambda

    • configure S3 bucket to store code (easy multi-environment support)
    • configure groups of functions together
    • sensible defaults for logging, etc.
    • shareable api gateway configs
    • repeatable create / deploy / redeploy / teardown
  • DynamoDB

    • Still mostly pass-through to CloudFormation

Things to consider:

  • Would AWS SAM be helpful?
  • Could there be more cooperation between configs and templates?
  • Should the env concept be part of more default values?
