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 🙏

Generate an AST and beautify LaTeX code

Note: You should use unified-latex and the unifiedjs infrastructure if you want to do serious AST manipulations. This library is a legacy wrapper around some basic functions in unified-latex.

latex-parser parses a typical LaTeX document and then pretty-prints it. Though parsing LaTeX isn't possible since it effectively has no grammar, latex-parser makes some practical assumptions.

How it works

latex-parser uses PEG.js to define a PEG grammar for LaTeX. LaTeX source is first parsed with this grammar. Then it is post-processed based on knowledge of special macros. (e.g., some macros are known to take an argument, like \mathbb. Such arguments are not detected in the PEG processing stage).

Development

node.js and npm are used to package and bundle latex-parser.

npm install
npm run build

for development, you can run

webpack --watch

to automatically rebuild files as they change.

Playground

You use the Playground to view how latex is parsed/pretty-printed. To run your own version, visit the playground repository, and make a local clone. After running npm install, run npm link in your local latex-parser repository. Then, run npm link latex-ast-parser in the local playground repository. This will mirror your development version of latex-parser in the playground.
