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 🙏

Enhanced CSS Slider

[!warning] This project is in its early stages and can be very unstable. The goal is to improve it and standardize its API as it's used in more projects.

Enhanced CSS Slider is a web component that wraps up all the JavaScript logic needed to:

  • Add Previous/Next arrows to a slider;
  • Add looping functionality;

It does not add or alter any markup, it merely adds behaviors to existing elements.

How to use

Enhanced CSS Slider assumes you have a scrollable element with the following CSS properties:

.parent {
  scroll-snap-type: x mandatory;
}
.child {
  scroll-snap-align: start | center;
}

More info about scroll-snap can be seen on this blog post.

With that, you can just wrap your scrollable element in the enhanced-css-slider component:

<enhanced-css-slider>
  <ul class="scrollable-list">
    <li>Item 1</li>
    <li>Item 2</li>
    <li>Item 3</li>
  </ul>
</enhanced-css-slider>

[!info] Enhanced CSS Slider will look for any ul elements inside of it and automatically assume that is the scrollable div that contains the slides. However, in case you need to explicitly tell it what the scrollable element is, you can add the data-slider-slot="list" attribute to it.

Adding previous/next buttons

Since this component doesn't provide any markup, you need to pass in the navigation buttons on your own. Enhanced CSS Slider will then look for elements with the prev and next classes or data-slider-slot="prev|next" attributes and add the event listeners to it.

<enhanced-css-slider>
  <ul class="scrollable-list">
    <li>Item 1</li>
    <li>Item 2</li>
    <li>Item 3</li>
  </ul>

  <button data-slider-slot="prev">Prev</button>
  <button data-slider-slot="next">Next</button>
</enhanced-css-slider>

Adding a current slider indicator

Similar to prev/next buttons, you can also pass an element with the current class or data-slider-slot="current" attribute, and Enhanced CSS Slider will automatically set the text of that element to the current slider index.

<enhanced-css-slider>
  <ul class="scrollable-list">
    <li>Item 1</li>
    <li>Item 2</li>
    <li>Item 3</li>
  </ul>

  <div>
    Slide <span data-slider-slot="current"></span> of 3
  </div>

  <button data-slider-slot="prev">Prev</button>
  <button data-slider-slot="next">Next</button>
</enhanced-css-slider>

Dot indicators

If you want to display dot indicators instead of a number, you can provide elements with the dot class or data-slider-slot="dot" attribute. With that, Enhanced CSS Slider will automatically toggle the active class as your slider scrolls.

<enhanced-css-slider>
  <ul class="scrollable-list">
    <li>Item 1</li>
    <li>Item 2</li>
    <li>Item 3</li>
  </ul>

  <div>
    <span data-slider-slot="dot"></span>
    <span data-slider-slot="dot"></span>
    <span data-slider-slot="dot"></span>
  </div>

  <button data-slider-slot="prev">Prev</button>
  <button data-slider-slot="next">Next</button>
</enhanced-css-slider>

Props

| Prop Name | Default | Description | | --------------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | centered | false | Use it if the active slider is center-aligned instead of aligned to the left. | | loop | false | Whether the slider should loop around. This creates clones of the first/last slides in order to give an illusion that the slides are looping. | | slides-to-clone | 2 | Only used in loop mode. This controls how many slides will be cloned. Increase this number in case the 2 slides aren't enough to give the looping illusion. Ideally this will be done automatically in the future. | | autoplay | false | If true, slides will cycle automatically within autoplay-interval. Pauses when hovered and stops completely if user manually scrolls. | | autoplay-interval | 5000 | The interval (in miliseconds) to wait when autoplaying slides. |

Slots

| Slot | Description | | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | list | The scrollable element. Can be set with data-slider-slot="list" or by being a ul element. | | current | The current active index of the slider. Can be set with data-slider-slot="current" or with the current class. | | dot | Dots that will be automatically highlighted. Can be set with data-slider-slot="dot" or with the dot class. | | prev | The button that scrolls to the previous slide. Can be set with data-slider-slot="prev" or with the prev class. | | next | The button that scrolls to the next slide. Can be set with data-slider-slot="next" or with the next class.

Events

| Event | Params | | | ------------ | ------------------- | - | | slideChanged | activeSlide (index) | | | slideStarted | prevSlide and nextSlide (index) | Fires right before the scroll is fired. Only works if scrolling is done programatically (via prev/next arrows or autoplay) | | autoplayStarted | | | | autoplayStopped | paused (true/false) | paused is true if autoplay was disabled temporarily (mouse hover), false if stopped completely (user action) |

Functions

| Function | Params | Description | | -------- | ------ | ----------- | | scrollNext | behavior (default: "smooth") | Goes to next slide. Will wrap around to the first slide if loop is enabled | | scrollPrev | behavior (default: "smooth") | Goes to previous slide. Wraps around to the last slide if loop is enabled | | scrollToIndex | behavior (default: "smooth") | Scrolls to a specific slide by index. Use behavior instant if you want to jump to it immediatelly instead of smoothly scrolling to it. |

Dealing with JavaScript unavailability

In cases where JavaScript isn't available, then this component won't be able to render at all. Luckily, since we're using CSS scroll-snap, the slider should still work normally. However, it's a good idea to hide the elements of the page that won't work. You can do that with a noscript tag:

<enhanced-css-slider>
  <ul class="scrollable-list">
    <li>Item 1</li>
    <li>Item 2</li>
    <li>Item 3</li>
  </ul>

  <div class="progress">
    Slide <span data-slider-slot="current"></span> of 3
  </div>

  <div class="navigation">
    <button data-slider-slot="prev">Prev</button>
    <button data-slider-slot="next">Next</button>
  </div>

  <noscript>
      <!-- Hide JS-only elements if JavaScript is unavailable -->
      <style>
          .progress,
          .navigation {
            display: none !important;
          }
      </style>
  </noscript>
</enhanced-css-slider>

Handling cases where slider is not needed

In situations where there is more than enough space to fit all children in the viewport without scrolling, Enhanced CSS Slider will automatically disable the prev/next arrows and add the no-scroll class to your list. You can then use CSS to apply any styling rules you'd like. This behavior is not present if centered or loop are true.
