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 🙏

Kanpo

Another proxy between your local development server and the outside world - this time though, via WebRTC.

Why

Because you don't need a third party server to relay your data and most certainly you do not need to pay them to remove throttling and because no one will be able to look into your traffic.

Usage

First part will setup the WebRTC connection. Once that is done, the guest machine will execute a local server, all requests going to that server will be proxied to the remote machine.

Step 1

Host (machine wanting to share local port 3000):

npx kanpo -p 3000 # <- will render webrtc offer and will wait for answer

Step 2

Guest (maching wanting to access some other machine's local port)

npx kanpo -t guest # <- will ask for offer from step 1 and will render answer

Step 3

In Host machine (from step 1), input answer from step 2

Step 4

Open up http://localhost:300 in Guest machine to see content from Host machine's server.

Params

--port, -p

  • Default: 80 for host and 3000 for guest

Sets port Kanpo will tunel

--type, -t

  • Values: host or guest
  • Default: host

Sets type of executing script. Host will share local server and guest will receive create a local port where the proxied data will be sent.
