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

BrowseDown

BrowseDown is an browser-based alternative to level-down, which can be used as a backend for level-up, thus allowing you to use the same storage in node, browser, react-native, and mongodb.

There is another an in-browser implementation of this called level.js, which this is heavily inspired on. Unfortunately, it seems to be unmaintained and is no longer compatible with level-up.

This version is also writen on top of the useful IDBWrapper library, and I was inspired by their karma tests. I wrote the BrowseDown in Typescript and transpiled it to Javascript for npm. I also imported the entire test suite from abstract-leveldown and run them in with karma and tape in the browser.

This is tested with new versions of Firefox and Chrome on OSX and Linux. I am happy for any more testing.

Usage

To add it to your project, just:

npm install browsedown

Then use it like this:

import {browsedown} from 'browsedown';
import levelup from 'levelup';

const db = levelup(browsedown('idb-store-name'));

Dev Commands

yarn install
yarn test
yarn build
