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 🙏

Browser Application Builder

All the things you would want in a build system for building browser application in one package.

(Building angular modules? Then you'll find this more useful: boilerplate-gulp-angular)

Tasks

# Lints, compiles, prefixes, test, and minifies JS and LESS files
# and puts the artifacts in the ./build directory
gulp bpcss:build

# Watches source files and rebuilds when they are modified and starts a server
# on port 8080 which serves ./build and ./example directories
gulp bpcss:dev

Use

Execute npm install --save-dev gulp boilerplate-gulp, then modify your Gulpfile.js like so (or create one):

var path = require('path');
var gulp = require('gulp');
var boilerplate = require('boilerplate-gulp');

boilerplate(gulp, {
  name: 'example',

  connect: {
    // The root directories to serve using the development server
    root: ['./example', './build']
  }

  js: {
    // The entry point of the CommonJS module
    entry: path.join(__dirname, 'src/main.js'),

    // All JS files to be linted and included in coverage tests
    sources: path.join(__dirname, 'src/**/*.js'),

    // The Jasmine unit tests
    tests: path.join(__dirname, 'src/**/*Spec.js'),

    // The destination to put the built file
    dest: path.join(__dirname, 'build', 'js')
  },

  css: {
    // The entry point of the LESS module
    entry: path.join(__dirname, 'src/main.less'),

    // The LESS files sources to lint
    sources: path.join(__dirname, 'src/**/*.less'),

    // The destination to put the built file
    dest: path.join(__dirname, 'build', 'css')
  }
});

// Rest of your gulp file, potentially overwriting the boilerplate-gulp tasks...

Capabilities

  • Compiles JavaScript CommonJS modules into a single file (browserify) which can be loaded directly in a browser, via CommonJS loader, or a AMD loader. Produces both an unminified version and a minified version with source maps.
  • Compiles LESS files into a single CSS file. Produces both an unminified version and a minified version with a source maps.
  • Run cross-browser unit tests (jasmine & karma) using Chrome, Firefox, and Safari.
  • Generates coverage reports (istanbul) for unit tests.
  • Lints CSS (recess) and JS (jshint)
  • Launch a development server (connect) which automatically reloads browsers (livereload) as files get rebuild incrementally (gulp)
