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

#localhost.rocks localhost.rocks

##WHAT IS IT?

Localhost.rocks is a set of tools for Javascript and NodeJS that simply resolve the variable localhost to the FQN localhost.rocks domain which in turn always resolves to 127.0.0.1.

##INSTALLING

Ensure git is installed on the system. Then simply create a folder on your desktop or server. Then type simply do:

git clone https://github.com/active9/localhost-rocks

Once downloaded cd into the downloaded directory. Ensure you have npm and nodejs installed on the system. Then simply do:

npm install

##RUNNING

To run localhost-rocks you can try the examples by typing in the following from within the main package directory.

node examples/hello_world.js

##CONTRIB

Localhost.rocks is made to replace localhost with a DNS specific alternative for developers and published items. Localhost.rocks will always resolve to 127.0.0.1. Alternatively you may also force localhost.rocks to point to 127.0.0.1 within the hosts file on the system OS.

##TODO

  1. Add Hosts File Addition Per OS
