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 🙏

Type Validation

Throw errors when unexpected types are provided or returned from class or object functions. For more details, see the Type Validator API.

import {param, returns} from 'decorate-this';

class Point {
    constructor() {
        this.x = 0;
        this.y = 0;
    }

    // The first param of this method takes a Point, and will throw
    // a type error if a non-Point is passed
    @param(Point)
    // The method returns a Number. If it doesn't, a type error will
    // be thrown before the value is returned.
    @returns(Number)
    distanceTo(point) {
        let squaredDistance = (point.x - this.x) ** 2 +
            (point.y - this.y) ** 2;

        return Math.sqrt(squaredDistance);
    }

    // Two number args, no return value
    @param(Number)
    @param(Number)
    addToDimensions(x, y) {
        this.x += x;
        this.y += y;
    }
}

Memoization

Automatically memoize functions for greater efficiency

import memoize from 'decorate-this';
let obj = {
    // Results of the function are stored in a map, which maps arguments
    // to the function's result. This expensive func is only run a single
    // time for a given a/b pair.
    @memoize
    expensiveFunc(a, b) {
        return Math.sin(Math.sqrt(a ** b));
    }
};

Property descriptors

import {enumerable, writable, configurable} from 'decorate-this';

class T {
    @configurable(false)
    @enumerable(false)
    @writable(false)
    hiddenMethod() {
        /* ... */
    }
}

Currying

Build up long argument lists with currying

let obj = {
    @curry
    curriedAdd(a, b, c) {
        return a + b + c;
    }
}

let addToFive = obj.curriedAdd(5);   // Function
let addToFiveAndThree = addToFive(3);  // Function
let sum = addToFiveAndThree(7);      // 15

Debouncing

Rate-limit expensive or frequently called functions

let obj = {
    @debounce(500) // call after 500ms of no further calls
    debouncedFn(event) {
        console.log(event.clientX, event.clientY);
    }
}

Promises

Similar to returns, but validates the fulfillment value of a promise

let obj = {
    @promises(ArrayOf(Number))
    getPoints() {
        return new Promise(resolve => {
            setTimeout(() => resolve([1, 2, 3]), 5000);
        });
    }
}
