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 🙏

Installation

It's my intention to make this a one-step process, but for now:

Mac OS X

  1. npm install poxy
  2. brew install dnsmasq
  3. echo "address=/dev/127.0.0.1\nlisten-address=127.0.0.1" > /etc/local/dnsmasq.conf
  4. sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/homebrew.mxcl.dnsmasq.plist
  5. echo "nameserver 127.0.0.1\nport 53" | sudo tee /etc/resolver/dev
  6. sudo ipfw add 100 fwd 127.0.0.1,10969 tcp from any to any 80 in
  7. poxy

Note: You'll need to do the last two steps every time you start your computer (for now, at least).

Linux & Windows

You're on your own, for now. You'll need to:

  • Run a DNS server on localhost that responds to all requests ending in .dev with 127.0.0.1
  • Configure your computer to talk to that DNS server first, before the others. (On Linux, it looks like this page might help.)
  • Forward port 80 on your machine to port 10969
  • Run poxy
