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 🙏

Homebridge Plugin for Wii U (with Ristretto)

This is a plugin for Homebridge that exposes the Wii U (running Ristretto to HomeKit. Currently, it supports:

  • Powering off the console (powering on is another situation that is being worked on)
  • Launching and switching games and applications (currently, not homebrew applications)

In the future, the following will be added when Ristretto has the ability to do so:

  • Configuring the port Ristretto uses
  • Remote Key support
  • Powering On (probably via a stroopwafel plugin - more details TBD)
  • Controlling video/audio settings
  • Adding sensors for the battery of the GamePad or any other connected controllers

Note

You will need a modded Wii U running the Aroma custom firmware (CFW). Nintendo never added "smart home functionality" to the Wii U, so you will need to install a plugin (Ristretto) which is basically a HTTP server that will handle all the requests between Homebridge/HomeKit and the device.

For modding your Wii U, visit the Wii U Hacks Guide. DO NOT FOLLOW VIDEO GUIDES!!!!!!! Video guides often can contain incorrect information that is not up to date. NEVER, and I mean NEVER follow a video guide. If you need support, there are resources such as the Nintendo Homebrew discord.

Yes, modding your Wii U is safe. You will not brick your console unless you do something really ridiculous - in the modding process you will make a backup of the system's NAND. Keep in mind however, in some areas installing CFW may be illegal - make smart choices.

That being said, the developers of this plugin are not responsible for anything that happens to your Wii U.

Installation and Configuration

  1. Install Ristretto. This should be straight forward if you've modded your console - just install it like any other plugin. Copy Ristretto.wps to sd:/wiiu/environments/aroma/plugins.
  • If for some reason your console has issues booting (the plugin loader aborting when starting up, or the console crashes), you can safely hold the power button to power off the console. Report the issue on Ristretto's GitHub page.
  1. Get your Wii U's local IP address. You can find this if you have the ftpiiu plugin installed, or you can use other tools to recognize the device on your network.

  2. Install homebridge-wiiu and set the IP in the configuration to (your Wii U's IP address):8572. In the future, configuring the port on Ristretto will be an option.

  3. Restart homebridge and you should be good to go.
