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

alpinejs-web-components

GitHub release (latest by date)

This package is a tiny script who loads code from a regular html file, convert it to a native web component and make it usable anywhere in your pages with reactivity and logic powered by AlpineJS.

Motivations

AlpineJS is a wonderfull framework but it lacks a way to define reusable components and templates across all pages.

Brower's native webComponents API is also great, but it lacks a simple way to add reactivity and logic to web components.

So why not combining thoses two technologies and get the best of this two worlds ?

With this package you will be able to create reusable HTML components with AlpineJS logic and reactivity, use scoped styles, predefine generic templates, include your components just in time (just like Astro.js islands) without build phase.

Limitations

This package is not able to do much more than what AlpineJS and webComponents API are able to do.

Not using a build phase means that everything is done browser side, which may leads to flash rendering effects and layout shifts.

This package does not pretend to be a replacement for JS frameworks and if you already use a build phase, a server side technology, a static site generator or HTMX in you project, it makes literally no sense to use this package.
