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 🙏

PRISM Break

Welcome to the PRISM Break project. Here's a quick overview of the code. JSON containing all of the project data is filtered through LiveScript and then compiled to plain HTML with Jade templates. Stylesheets are managed with Stylus, a CSS preprocessor.

The prism-break build process relies on several npm packages. Make sure to have io.js or node.js installed on your system if you want to contribute to the code.

If you'd like to translate the project to your favorite language, there's no need to install io.js or even download the code. Just edit the appropriate JSON files on GitHub and submit a pull request.

More information for translators can be found in CONTRIBUTING.md.

Project Inclusion Guidelines

Only F/OSS software is allowed to be featured on PRISM Break. PRISM Break follows the GNU/FSF definition of Free Software and prefers software licensed under a compatible license but may allow other OSI reviewed licenses. The only exception is when free software offers no viable alternative to proprietary software. "Web Search" is the only category with this exception currently.

Quality over quantity. PRISM Break strives to promote the best open source applications. Ease of use, stability, and performance matter. This is the first time many people are looking to leave their proprietary walled gardens. Let's make it a good experience for them. If you're writing a privacy-minded FOSS app, please finish it before asking PRISM Break to promote it.

Before suggesting software, please first search this repository to see if your request has already been made. If it has been rejected, you'll learn why. If the issue hasn't been addressed, add a comment as to why it deserves inclusion. If the software has been improved significantly since the initial rejection, feel free to suggest it again.

Pull requests are prioritized over issues. I will respond to them quicker and they will get an answer faster.

Project Submission (quick version)

1. Edit

Add the project you wish to get listed.

vi ./source/db/en-projects.json                  # edit or add a project

cp project.png ./source/assets/images/logos/medium/    # put 60x60 PNG here

2. Test

Make sure your edits do not break the site by building the English version of PRISM Break. Open the pages to make sure it all works.

npm install
make test      # builds ./public/en for preview purposes

3. Translate

You edited the en-projects.json file earlier. This only creates a project description for the English version of PRISM Break. Please copy the project description to all the other language files, so translators work on it more easily.

# Copying your edits to *-projects.json
./source/db/*-projects.json

At this point, feel free to commit the changes and submit a pull request. Steps #4 and #5 are only necessary if you want to build your own copy of the site.

4. Build

make           # get a drink, it'll take a while build all 27 languages

make reset     # making a drastic change? run this instead of `make`
               # this will vaporize /public before running `make`

5. Serve

Serve the folder ./public on your web server.
