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 🙏

imghex

client and server utilities for tile-based maps using html img elements

HTML5, CSS, Nodejs, express, jade

This project uses CSS positioning to create "hex maps" for presentation in a browser supporting HTML5. Jade templates are used server-side OR client-side to build maps. Maps consist of inter-leaved rows of hex tiles. Each row is a list. The list element contents are image elements. CSS positioning is used to offset rows of hex tiles so that they 'nestle' together.

Generally, the author believes that there is value in managing tile-based maps as img elements as opposed to managing graphical images in canvas elements. The conceptual difference is simple: if the map is made of img elements, each element is accessible as part of the document structure. This allows to take advantage of tools like jQuery when manipulating the map.
