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 🙏

Answers (Search) Hitchhiker Theme

A Jambo theme for building Search experiences.

Additional resources for integrating Search can be found at https://hitchhikers.yext.com/.

Need help? Ask a question in the Hitchhiker's Community.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

  • Jambo, a static site generator, which can be installed with npm i jambo
  • A Search experience configured at https://yext.com. This will provide the experienceKey and the apiKey

Creating a Search site

Inside a new directory, initialize jambo with the theme:

npx jambo init --theme answers-hitchhiker-theme

Add a universal search page:

npx jambo page --name index --template universal-standard

Inside config/global_config.json, delete the "//" before "apiKey" and enter your apiKey. Do the same for the experienceKey inside config/locale_config.json. You can find examples inside test-site/config.

Build the site:

npx jambo build && grunt webpack

Finally, serve the site:

npx serve public

The site should now be available at http://localhost:5000.

Custom Jambo Commands

This theme makes the following commands available when Jambo imports this theme.

Vertical Command

Creates a vertical page of a Search experience.

Example usage:

npx jambo vertical --name Locations --verticalKey locations --template vertical-standard

See jambo vertical --help for more info.

Card Command

Creates a new, custom card based on an existing card.

Example usage:

npx jambo card --name custom-location --templateCardFolder cards/location-standard

See jambo card --help for more info.

Direct Answer Card

Creates a new, custom direct answer card.

Example usage:

npx jambo directanswercard --name custom-directanswer --templateCardFolder directanswercards/allfields-standard

See jambo directanswercard --help for more info.
