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 🙏

Object-Flatify

Transforms complex nested objects and arrays into a single-level structure, including array indices in the column names. This conversion simplifies the representation of hierarchical data, making it easier to work with in tabular formats. By flattening the data, this tool enables direct binding to CSV, Excel, and other data table formats, facilitating data manipulation, analysis, and export. This is particularly useful for preparing data for reporting, visualization, or any application that requires a flat data structure.

Parameters

  • input: Object
    • The nested object to flatten. Must be a valid JavaScript object.
    • Example: { a: { b: { c: 1 } } }

Returns

  • Object
    • A single-level object with dot notation keys.
    • Example: { 'a.b.c': 1 }

ObjectFlattener.toDataTableFromObject(input, [options])

Flattens a nested object into a single-level object with dot notation keys into Excel level rows mapped.

Parameters
