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 🙏

hablar.js

A JavaScript library useful for compiling i18n translations written in a DSL to JavaScript functions.

This is very much still a work in progress

With an API that is to be considered unstable.

DSL

The DSL is defined in JISON files (see src/parsers/grammars). But to illustrate the key parts of the language here is an example:

Hello $name, it has been {{formatDate($timeSinceLastVisit, "months"}} since your last visit.

This would roughly translate into the following javascript function:

function(parameters, functions) {
	return 'Hello ' + parameters.name + ', it has been ' + functions['formatDate'](parameters.timeSinceLastVisit, 'months') + ' since your last visit.';
}

It is worth noting that the actual function generated includes various rules regarding escaping output, that complicates the actual function.

Constraints

Sometimes we need to use a different translation string based on the input variables. Think situations where a you need to show the number of items in a shopping basket. If there are 0 items in the basket we might want to show something like You have no items in your basket.. If there is 1 item we might want to show You have one item in your basket., and otherwise You have $n items in your basket.

This is supported by adding constraints to the variables, basically allowing a series of if-statements to be generated inside the function.
