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 🙏

Introducing FitVids.js

A lightweight, easy-to-use jQuery plugin for fluid width video embeds.

FitVids automates the Intrinsic Ratio Method by Thierry Koblentz to achieve fluid width videos in your responsive web design.

How Do I Use It?

Include jQuery 1.7+ and FitVids.js in your layout and target your videos container with fitVids().

<script src="path/to/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="path/to/jquery.fitvids.js"></script>
<script>
  $(document).ready(function(){
    // Target your .container, .wrapper, .post, etc.
    $("#thing-with-videos").fitVids();
  });
</script>

This will wrap each video in a div.fluid-width-video-wrapper and apply the necessary CSS. After the initial Javascript call, it's all percentage-based CSS magic.

Currently Supported Players

* means native support for these may be deprecated. If your video platform is not currently supported, try adding it via a customSelector...

Add Your Own Video Vendor

Have a custom video player? We now have a customSelector option where you can add your own specific video vendor selector (mileage may vary depending on vendor and fluidity of player):

  $("#thing-with-videos").fitVids({ customSelector: "iframe[src^='http://mycoolvideosite.com'], iframe[src^='http://myviiids.com']"});
  // Selectors are comma separated, just like CSS

Note: This will be the quickest way to add your own custom vendor as well as test your player's compatibility with FitVids.

Ignore With Class

Have a video you want FitVids to ignore? You can slap a class of fitvidsignore on your object or container and your video will be displayed as it is defined.

If you'd like to add a custom block to ignore FitVids, use the ignore option.

  $("#thing-with-videos").fitVids({ ignore: '.mycooldiv, #myviiid'});
  // Selectors are comma separated, just like CSS

Target Videos embedded without classes or containers

Customers/clients will occasionally add a video to a general content area or article and this may be without a class or container that you're targetting. A solution to this is to target the parent of videos, using something like the below;

  $('iframe[src*="youtube"]').parent().fitVids();
  // You can change the selector to suit potential video providers, or chain them if your customer is likely to use more than one provider

By targetting the iframe/embed parent you can then dynamically add in the fitVids special sauce on the fly without needing to know the container ahead of time.

Known issues

  • Vimeo Autoplay API is not compatible with FitVids in IE11. You must manually wrap videos you want to autoplay.
