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

Heh, Cool Codename.

BRUH.

CodeNames

We just really like naming our releases cool codenames like "DesertFox" or "AcrticJaguar" or "RushMonkey". So we decided to turn this into a tiny really lame npm module.

It's also super helpful to users when resources have a nice name to be called with by default. Good UX is sexy. (Which actually happens to be the real reason we built this.)

Installation

Run one of these commands.

npm install heh-cool-codename --save

or if you're using yarn (which you should be)

yarn add heh-cool-codename

Usage

It exports just one function. That takes one argument. A number. The same number returns the same codename. Pass in a random number or pass in a hash. Which ever you prefer.

There are a total of 110^2 possible codenames.

import * as codename from 'heh-cool-codename';

codename(983456); // ['Solar', 'Crane']

Yes, it returns an Array. We don't know your usecase so we believe this is best. Besides turning it into a string is trivial.

// "LambdaRacoon"
codename(345665).join(''); 

// "lambda-racoon"
codename(345665)
	.map(name => name.toLowerCase())
    .join('-');

CLI

Yeah, we threw that in for fun. Install globally for use.

Run it as is for a random codename.

heh-cool-codename

or pass in a seed number to get a specific codename.

heh-cool-codename 42

Output: Desert Croc
