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 🙏

pdfdown

pdfdown is a tool to turn Markdown documents into PDFs

[sudo] npm install -g pdfdown

pdfdown AwesomeMarkdownFile.md AwesomePDFFile.pdf

You can also use style sheets in order to customize what your documents look like (but it's not full on CSS, so don't expect to be able to use CSS3 etc).

If you are using the version out of git you will need to run ./compile.sh otherwise it will not work correctly.

Stylesheets

Stylesheets look similar to CSS but are not as powerful due to Markdown not needing mass complexity. Rules are interpreted from top to bottom, there is no other logic going on.

A default stylesheet is always used first, and you can specify your own like so:

pdfdown -s MyStyles.css AwesomeMarkdownFile.md AwesomePDFFile.pdf

TODO

  • Support for Linux (fc-match might work?) and Windows font detection

Tips for OSX

Note: if you installed via npm, this does not apply :)

Font lookups on OSX may take a moment to do due to Swift needing to be called. You can speed this up by running:

./compileosx.sh

That will compile the findfont command we use to ask OSX where fonts are located
