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 🙏

The fastest and tiniest utility for conditionally joining classNames.

Installation

npm install classix

Usage

Use any amount of string expressions and classix will join them like so:

import cx from "classix";
// or
import { cx } from "classix";

cx("class1", "class2");
// => "class1 class2"

cx("class1 class2", "class3", "class4 class5");
// => "class1 class2 class3 class4 class5"

cx("class1", true && "class2");
// => "class1 class2"

cx(false && "class1", "class2");
// => "class2"

cx(true ? "class1" : "class2");
// => "class1"

cx("class1", false ? "class2" : "class3");
// => "class1 class3"

cx(...["class1", "class2", "class3"]);
// => class1 class2 class3

cx(
  "flex",
  isPrimary ? "bg-primary-100" : "bg-secondary-100",
  isLarge ? "m-4 p-4" : "m-2 p-2",
);
// => "flex bg-primary-100 m-2 p-2" *assuming isPrimary is true and isLarge is false

Comparison

Compared to other libraries, classix only allows string expressions as arguments:

// 🚫
clsx({ "class-1": isPrimary });
// ✅
cx(isPrimary && "class-1");

// 🚫
clsx({ "class-1": isPrimary && isLarge, "class-2": !isPrimary || !isLarge });
// ✅
cx(isPrimary && isLarge ? "class-1" : "class-2");

String expressions have a few benefits over objects:

  • A faster typing experience
  • A more intuitive syntax (conditions first)
  • else support through ternary operators

What's more, by leveraging them, classix provides:

Highlights

  • Supports all major browsers
  • Supports all versions of Node.js
  • Works with both ES Modules and CommonJS
  • Zero dependencies
  • Fully typed with TypeScript
  • Fully tested
  • Semver compliant

Migrating to classix

If you are using classnames or clsx, you can migrate to classix by changing your imports:

- import classnames from 'classnames';
+ import cx from 'classix';

And if you were using object arguments, you'll have to convert them to string arguments:

- classnames({ 'class-1': cond1, 'class-2': cond2 });
+ cx(cond1 && 'class-1', cond2 && 'class-2')

That's it!

Some love ❤️

"This looks great. I agree that the object notation is not great and not worth the perf hit." — @jmeistrich

"It looks good! I like the idea that you can’t pass objects and is simple and minimal. I will use it on my next application instead of classnames." — @m0ment98

"Thank you for creating and maintaining this package! It is great." — @charkour
