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 🙏

Fooda Command Line Interface (CLI)

Where my food(a) at?

alt-media

Installation

  • Install the Fooda CLI using Node Package Manager (NPM) by typing npm install fooda -g into your terminal.

Commands

  • To see what's cooking at a specific location, type fooda menu {location}.
  • For example, fooda menu davenport returns the menu for the Davenport building, today.
  • Currently, the only supported location options are davenport and hubspot (I know, I know). I get to why a bit later.

Moar Background Information

Why is this service so limited?

  • Full disclosure: when creating this CLI, I worked at HubSpot, so from a completely selfish perspective, I cared about what the Fooda options were near me.
  • Fooda doesn't have an API, so I am generating menu information by scraping their website.
  • Given the lack of an API, and that Fooda's url structuring is not completely obvious, programmatically supporting multiple locations is a bit challenging.

Why did you create this really limited service?

  • Fooda wasn't doing a very good job of emailing me what options were available for a given day, and I hate leaving the command line, if I don't have to (because I'm lazy #millenialproblems).
