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 🙏

Readme

Web app generator Build Status

Yeoman generator that scaffolds out a front-end web app using Ember and RequireJS.

Features

  • CSS Autoprefixing
  • Built-in preview server with LiveReload
  • Automatically compile Sass
  • Automatically lint your scripts
  • Unit Testing with Karma and PhantomJS
  • Bootstrap for Sass
  • Dependency management with Bower

For more information on what generator-rjs-ember can do for you, take a look at the Gruntfile.js.

Getting Started

  • Install: npm install -g generator-rjs-ember
  • Run: yo rjs-ember
  • Run grunt for building and grunt serve to preview. You can use the --allow-remote option for remote access.

Third-Party Dependencies

(HTML/CSS/JS/Images/etc)

All app dependencies are managed by Bower, any dependencies related to grunt and the build tools are managed through NPM. Grunt will automatically update the Bower components on every build.

There are two non-managed libraries by Matt Mastracci part of this solution:

requirejs-ember-handlebars and requirejs-handlebars

Options

  • --skip-install

    Skips the automatic execution of bower after scaffolding has finished.

Application Overview

This is a standalone application. The 'index.html' file is the container of the application and not meant to be changed other than adding more tags to the head element. Please note that the build script will replace some paths references in the file when creating the final distribution. 'main.js' is the entry point of the application. It will load the 'reuqire-config.js' file and set up the initial dependencies. From there, the application route will be the entry point for the actual application. There is a folder called 'services', which is currently empty. The intention with this folder is to separate the business logic from the controllers. Services should extend from Ember.Object and be registered and injected through the applicationRegistration.js file.

The advantage that I see in this architecture is cleaner organization of dependencies. Controllers should only depend on services, not other controllers. And services should only be loosly coupled by passing another service to a method as an argument.

Another advantage with RequireJS and Ember is that RequireJS allows for encapsulation where one can define "private static" helper functions outside of the Ember object declaration.

I hope this setup will allow for a better organization of the code.

Contribute

Feel free to contact me if you like to contribute.

If not, generator-rjs-ember is fork-friendly and you can always maintain a custom version which you npm install && npm link to continue using via yo rjs-ember or a name of your choosing.
