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 🙏

#i-am-a-skid

The purpose of this script is simple: To eliminate skids everywhere!! All jokes aside, i-am-a-skid is a little thing that helps you shape your Google searches so that you can reach the information you need without posting a redundant question and getting roasted on the Internet. That's all.

#Installation

You'll need to have Node.js to install this. If you don't know what it is, it's basically a cool thing that runs Javascript in your command prompt/terminal. Head to https://nodejs.org and download it. Afterwards, you'll be able to install with the following command:

npm install -g i-am-a-skid

#Usage

Simply run i-am-a-skid. You can use the --language switch to specify a language beforehand. Otherwise, the program will ask you which language you seek help with. Next, you will be asked what your end goal is. Based on this information, a Google search query will be generated and opened in your browser. Bam.
