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 🙏

Getting started

  • Make sure you have yo installed: npm install -g yo
  • Install the generator: npm install -g generator-license
  • Run: yo license, enter your full name and choose a license

The generator will generate the LICENSE file and fill the license field of the package.json.

Compose with generator license in your own generator

generator-license can be easily embedded into your own generator using Yeoman composability.

First, install generator-license as a dependency of your own generator.

npm install --save generator-license

Then call it from your generator.

this.composeWith(require.resolve('generator-license'), {
  name: 'John Doe', // (optional) Owner's name
  email: '[email protected]', // (optional) Owner's email
  website: 'https://example.com', // (optional) Owner's website
  year: '1945', // (optional) License year (defaults to current year)
  licensePrompt: 'Which license do you want to use?', // (optional) customize license prompt text
  defaultLicense: 'MIT', // (optional) Select a default license
  license: 'MIT', // (optional) Select a license, so no license prompt will happen, in case you want to handle it outside of this generator
});

All the options are optional; the generator will prompt for answers when information is not provided.
