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 🙏

Readme

Litic

JS library to perform technical SEO and best practices analysis to your projects.

Note: This tool functionality relies on Google Lighthouse. It's such a great tool to test your web projects!

Install

Just run the npm install command:

npm i litic -g

After the installation, you can use it via:

litic -u "https://example.com/test-url" -k "my keyword" -o "output.csv"

Tests

Litic currently analyses your website against 45 different tests, divided by category:

Category|Test name ---|---- Performance | HTTP/2 Performance | Server Response Time Performance | Largest Contentful Paint Performance | Cumulative Layout Shift Performance | First Contentful Paint Performance | Time to Interactive Performance | HTML Minification Performance | Minified CSS Performance | Minified JS Performance | Optimized caching strategy Performance | Uses Text Compression Performance | Reduced DOM Size Performance | Lazy-load offscreen images Robots | Page is crawlable Accessibility | Jump to Main Content Accessibility | Matching HTML Language Accessibility | Color Contrast Accessibility | Image Alternative Text Accessibility | Appropiate size for tap targets Accessibility | Font size is greater than 12px Best Practices | HTML is valid Best Practices | Console errors Best Practices | <!DOCTYPE html> Best Practices | <html> has [lang] attribute Best Practices | Apple Touch Icon Best Practices | Javascript Links Best Practices | Empty Anchor Links Meta-tags | <meta charset="utf-8"> is used Meta-tags | <meta name="viewport"> is correctly used Meta-tags | <title> tag is present Meta-tags | meta[name="description"] Meta-tags | Canonical URL is defined Meta-tags | Document has a valid hreflang Content | Heading structure Content | Content Width Content | Text Readability Content | Keywords (Text Rank) Content | BERT Score Security | No plain text emails Security | HTTPS Security | HTTPS Redirection Security | External links use [rel="noopener"] or [rel="noreferrer"] Security | Protect against MIME Sniffing Security | Protect against Clickjacking Other | Domain expiration

Each test comes with a description, and most of them will also offer you a link with more information.

Usage

To use Litic, you can just run an analysis with litic -u "https://your-url.com/". The results of this analysis will be printed on your console:

Additionally, you can also use other parameters, such as -o to specify the path where you want to store the results, or -k to specify a keyword to run content checks against.

Short name | Long name | Description | Required ---|---|---|--- -u|--url|URL to run the tests against|Yes -k|--keyword|Keyword to run content checks against|No -o|--output|Output path for a CSV file with the results|No

Running remote

If running under a low-resource environment, you can run the lighthouse analysis using Google PageSpeed Insights API. To do this, you just need to set the PAGESPEED_TOKEN environment variable to your API token, and Litic will use it to perform the remote analysis.

PAGESPEED_TOKEN={YOUR_TOKEN} litic -u "https://example.com"

Smart tests

There are a few tests that rely on Silver Diamond to execute. To use them, please register and set an environment variable named SD_KEY to your api key.

SD_KEY={API_KEY} litic -u "https://example.com"

Roadmap

There are a lot of tests I want to include in Litic, as well as making it possible to provide a list of URLs (or even an excel with tons of URLs) and run the tests against each one of them.
