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 🙏

AngularJS 1.3 / 1.4 IE8 builds

AngularJS 1.3 / 1.4 does not work with IE8. With these custom builds you get good IE8 support. I can't guarantee that everything will work but anything I've tried works fine.

What you need

  • es5-shim
  • jQuery 1.*
  • AngularJS 1.4.* build from this repo (some poly-fills are baked in and minor fixes to enable IE8 support)

Example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
	<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
	<meta charset="utf-8" />
	<title>Angular 1.4 IE8</title>
	<!--[if IE 8]>
		<script src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/es5-shim/4.0.5/es5-shim.min.js"></script>
		<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.1.min.js"></script>
		<style>
			.ng-hide {
				display: none !important;
			}
		</style>
	<![endif]-->
	<script src="angular.js"></script>
</head>
<body ng-app="someApp">

</body>
</html>

npm & bower

npm
npm install angularjs-ie8-build
bower
bower install angularjs-ie8-build

// bower install with local name "angular"
bower install angular=angularjs-ie8-build

Careful now

When using $q promise methods catch or finally in IE8 use bracket notation instead of dot notation. Same goes for $http delete method. IE8 does not like dot notation with these reserved words.

// no
promise.catch(function(){});

// yes
promise['catch'](function(){});

Other stuff

  • Use attributes for directives, e.g. <div ng-view> instead of custom element <ng-view>
  • If you want to use custom elements, you need to make IE8 aware of them first, e.g. document.createElement('ng-view');
  • Use ng-style instead of style="{{ someCss }}"
  • Check any additional angular or third party modules you are using for reserved words described above. If you find any, use a search and replace to change from dot notation to bracket notation
