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

Install using npm install countries-and-nationalities

The package is designed to be quick and easy to use. It contains two (2) simple functions:

  1. getListofNationalities(arrayOfNationalitiesToIncludeAtTheTop)

This returns an array of the most commonly used nationalities, sorted in alphabetical order. It simply return an array of strings of nationalities.

Sample snippet of the response:

[ "Afghan", "Albanian", "Algerian", ... ]

The arrayOfNationalitiesToIncludeAtTheTop argument The arrayOfNationalitiesToIncludeAtTheTop argument is intended to be used to specify the most common nationalities of users of your application. For example, if 90% of your users are from Zambia or Zimbabwe, it would be a poor user experience to have them scroll to the bottom of the list to find their nationality. Instead, pass in ["Zambian", "Zimbabwean"] to the getListofNationalities function and those two nationalities will be placed at the top of the array returned by the function. Ensure the nationalities are spelt correctly.

Sample snippet of the result would be:

[ "Zambian", "Zimbabwean" "Afghan", "Albanian", "Algerian", ... ]

Note: incorrectly spelt nationalities will be ignored. Omit this argument to get the nationalities in alphabetical order.

  1. getListOfCountries(arrayOfCountriesToIncludeAtTheTop) This returns an array of the most commonly used countries, in alphabetical order. These simply return an array of strings of countries.

Snippet of the response:

const countries = [ "Afghanistan", "Albania", "Algeria", "American Samoa", ... ]

The arrayOfCountriesToIncludeAtTheTop argument The arrayOfCountriesToIncludeAtTheTop argument is intended to be used to specify the most common countries of users of your application. For example, if 90% of your users are from Zambia or Zimbabwe, it would be a poor user experience to have them scroll to the bottom of the list to find their country. Instead, pass in ["Zambia", "Zimbabwe"] to the getListOfCountries function and those two countries will be placed at the top of the array returned by the function. Ensure the countries are spelt correctly.

Sample snippet of the result would be:

[ "Zambia", "Zimbabwe" "Afghan", "Albanian", "Algerian", ... ]

Note: incorrectly spelt countries will be ignored. Omit this argument to get the countries in alphabetical order.
