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 🙏

OpenWhisk Workshop

🎉 Welcome to the OpenWhisk workshop! 🎉

OpenWhisk is a cloud-first distributed event-based programming service. It provides a programming model to upload event handlers to a cloud service, and register the handlers to respond to various events. Learn more at https://developer.ibm.com/openwhisk or try it on IBM Bluemix OpenWhisk.

This workshop provides a series of exercises to help you understand how to use OpenWhisk to build serverless applications.

Developers are introduced to each feature of the platform through these exercises. After reading the exercise documentation, they are presented with a challenge to test their skills. The tool automatically verifies whether they have passed that test and records their progress.

overview

installation

Please ensure you are running Node version 6 or above.

$ npm install -g openwhisk-workshop 

This tool needs the OpenWhisk command-line utility to be installed and authenticated against an instance of the platform. For more details on getting this environment setup, see the following documentation here.

usage

Once the tool is installed, developers can open the application by running the following command.

$ openwhisk-workshop

challenges

The list of exercises will be displayed, along with current completion progress. Using the arrow keys () to navigate the menu, press RETURN to open an exercise.

On selecting an exercise, the problem challenge will be printed to the terminal.

exercise

documentation

Each exercise comes with a documentation page which explains the concepts behind the challenge. Use the following command to display the exercise documentation in the terminal.

$ openwhisk-workshop more

Developers may need to write sample serverless functions and set up triggers and rules to implement the solutions.

verification

Once the developer has solved the challenge, they can verify their solution with the following command.

$ openwhisk-workshop verify

If their solution is correct, that task will be marked as completed and the utility returns to the list of exercises. Developers can continue working through the exercises until they have completed them all.
