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 🙏

npm version License

Gif Demo

NaturalShell is a Node.js package that simplifies the command line, allowing you to use natural language to generate and understand shell commands.

Requirements

  • GEMINI_API_KEY is required which you can get from here.
  • npm should be installed

Features

  • Natural Language Understanding: Easily convert your English sentences into shell commands.
  • Command Explanation: Get explanations for what each command does, enhancing your understanding of shell operations.
  • Command Editing: Directly edit the suggested command before execution, giving you full control.
  • Cross-Platform Support: Whether you're on Linux, macOS, or Windows, NaturalShell works seamlessly.

Setup

Ensure you have Node.js (version 14 or later) installed. Then, install NaturalShell globally using npm:

npm install -g naturalshell

Retrieve your API key from Google AI Studio.

Note: If you haven't already, you'll have to create an account and set up a project to get your API key. (It's free of cost!)

Usage

Simply run nsh or naturalshell followed by your query in natural language:

nsh -m "find all txt files in the current directory"

NaturalShell will interpret your command and offer a shell command suggestion with its explaination, which you can:

  • Run directly by pressing Enter
  • Edit to make adjustments
  • Understand by clearing your doubts.
  • Cancel if it's not what you were looking for
