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

brushi

CSS library back to basics

Features

  • No compilation needed
  • Componentized styling, no name collisions
  • Intuitive styling of nested structures
  • framework agnostic
  • Small, simple and no dependencies
  • Great for UI library creators

Rationale

A well designed web application requires well thought out styling. We organize JS code in components, and we would like to do the same with CSS code. There are various CSS libraries on the landscape, but there are various some shortcomings:

  • requires pre-processors
  • not as intuitive as normal CSS
  • cascading CSS not working as well
  • decorates DOM with verbose styles everywhere
  • not handling dynamic user interactions well
  • UI libraries end up with hard coded CSS, or complicated to style

Most CSS libraries do have the following benefits:

  • ability to separate CSS into modules
  • localized CSS development to avoid name collision
  • some ability to handle calculated attributes

brushi is designed to be a CSS library that is dead simple to use and understand, but allows all the benefits of CSS componentization.

Status

brushi is being actively worked on. I am personally using it with much success, but would like to firm up the API and usage pattern before releasing it to the public.
