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

gz-heatmap

Produce a heatmap of gzip files to better understand how gzip compresses your code.

Screenshot of gz-heatmap

Usage

Website

Go to https://andrewiggins.github.io/gz-heatmap/ and enter a URL or upload a file to see how GZip compresses your file. Your file is compressed using the pako library with memLevel set to 9 (highest compression).

CLI

Install this npm package to run gz-heatmap on a file. It'll compress the given text file using NodeJS's bundled zlib and output a local HTML file to view how gzip compresses your file.

NPM package

If you'd like to build your UI, you can import { gzinflate } from "gz-heatmap"; to inflate a gzip file and get back metadata describing how gzip has compressed your file.

Acknowledgements

  • gzthermal This repository is basically a JS implementation of wicked-cool gzthermal tool. I wanted to add some nifty interactive features gzthermal so I re-implemented it in JavaScript to add them.
  • gzthermal-web How I originally discovered the gzthermal tool.
  • tiny-inflate The core inflate algorithm is based on a fork of the tiny-inflate JS implementation.
  • fflate Another JS inflate implementation I looked at to understand how GZip works
