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 🙏

This module is an ad blocker for bad actors in this space, like the funding npm module (at least as of [email protected]).

Usage

  • Install fswatch first and ensure it's in your path. For example, in macOS, use Homebrew to install fswatch by running brew install fswatch.

  • Install: npm i -g no-cli-ads.

  • Block ads: no-cli-ads /some/dir/and/its/subdirs/to/watch.

    • This will spawn a process to monitor when npm installs an ad package and disable it if it detects one being installed.

  • Disable the blocker: yes-cli-ads.

    • This will kill the monitoring process.

  • Important note: This module is untested in Windows and may not work properly in Windows!

Support open source!

This module is not meant to imply that open source is unworthy of support.

By all means, let's find business models to support open source. Let's solicit donations, do paid sponsorships, and yes, let's even run ads! But if you run ads, always make sure you do them in a tasteful way, or people are gonna start blocking them.

Last but not least, if you've got an idea for how to make this ad blocker better-designed or you just want to block more spammy stuff, pull requests are welcome.
