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 🙏

Babel Plugin Remove Unused Vars

Babel plugin to remove unused variables and imports (Babel autofix for ESLint's no-unused-vars).

Installation

npm install --save-dev babel-plugin-remove-unused-vars

Usage

npx babel --no-babelrc --retain-lines --plugins babel-plugin-remove-unused-vars --out-dir src-2/ src/

This plugin is intended for source-to-source conversions. You can then replace original source with output source, and have a quick look over at git diff to see what was changed and revert any unwanted changes.

Features

Removes

  • Unused imports
  • Unused function arguments
  • Unused results of function calls (ie. requires, or any others.)
  • Unused variables (even destructured ones)

Caveats

This plugin is NOT perfect. It'll have false-positives and remove used variables or sometimes keep unused variables around. It's highly rare but still something you have to keep in mind, if you experience this behavior please open a bug report with steps to reproduce.

One case that has been intentionally not handled for code simplicity and maintainer sanity is deep assignment expressions, this plugin retains the right side statement if it's an assignment and is used and left side is unused, but if the assignment is somewhere deep inside, it'll treat it as a normal expression and not keep it around if left side is unused.

Explanation by example:

const a = b = something();
// ^ If a is unused, output:
b = something();
const a = something(b = jing());
// ^ If a is unused, output:
// - nothing.

It's a rare case, and a highly discouraged practice by most linters so support for it will not be added.
