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 🙏

IHLP

The International House of Loading Programs

Overview

IHLP is a cross-platform program designed as a lightweight helper for infrastructure management.

It compliments tools like Terraform and Serverless Framework, adding pre-deployment (like installing specific Terraform versions or initializing per-environment Terraform backends) and post-deployment (like syncing files to a S3 bucket and invalidating their CloudFront distribution cache) actions.

Its variable system facilitates moving configuration values between tools, e.g. using CloudFormation stack output values in Terraform backend configuration.

Getting Started

Install ihlp via npm, e.g.:

mkdir myproject
cd myproject
npx ihlp init

The initialization process will have you choose a starter template. Custom it and deploy it via npx ihlp deploy -e dev.

Documentation

Doc site is available here.

Uses

  • Enabling safe GitOps workflows:
    • When rolling back changes, previous working builds (e.g. AWS Lambda functions or React sites) will be automatically used instead of rebuilding them
  • Combining multiple deployment systems (e.g. CloudFormation or Azure Resource Manager alongside Terraform, or Terraform and Serverless Framework)
  • Combining multiple Terraform projects
    • Especially useful for when a single Terraform configuration isn't technically feasible (e.g. dynamic provider values)
  • Enforce Terraform execution best-practices:
