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 🙏

Faker.js Extensions

This adds additional methods to faker.js to generate massive amounts of realistic fake data in Node.js and the browser. Inspired by the PHP Faker (https://github.com/fzaninotto/Faker). There were a few methods available in the PHP Faker that I was looking for and not in JS variant. So this package bridges that gap. This package can be used without faker.js (https://github.com/marak/Faker.js/) but if there is a dependency it will return undefined, or in some instances, throw an error. So it's best to have Faker.js already loaded on the page before using these additional methods. This can be used with Node.js or in any ES5 browser or later.

Bonus

There also is a fake function which takes a string representation of a faker call. Can be used when creating custom yaml types. This allows you to use the faker library in a yaml file and when the yaml is parsed returns the random faker value.
