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 🙏

B. Installation

For bare React Native projects, you must ensure that you have installed and configured the expo package before continuing.

# 1. install library + dependencies
npm install react-native-ios-utilities
npm install react-native-ios-adaptive-modal

# 2. then run pod install (uses auto-linking)
cd ios && pod install

How The Library Works

Dependecy: AdaptiveModal

All of the modal presentation and animation is handled by a small library written in swift called: adaptive-modal. This library uses it under the hood for natively presenting a view controller with custom modal presentation.

adaptive-modal-demo-01

adaptive-modal-demo-02

adaptive-modal accepts a config that describes the state, behavior and layout of the modal:

  • The config defines all the various snapping points (e.g. the position of the modal, and its layout, e.g. height, width, margin, padding, etc).

  • The config defines the presentation, dismissal, and snapping animations, as well as how the modal should be animated (e.g. the animation duration, easing, etc),

  • The config defines the associated keyframes to apply for each snap point (e.g. the type and intensity of background + modal content background blur, the background color, corner radius, etc).

  • Etc.

the modal config is then evaluated, and gets "transformed" into something UIKit can understand via:

  • Handling all the necessary conformances to UIViewControllerAnimatedTransitioning, UIAdaptivePresentationControllerDelegate, UIViewControllerTransitioningDelegate
  • Handling the interpolation applied to the modal + keyframes when the modal is dragged around via gesture.
  • Using the defined keyframes and layout to animate the modal via UIViewPropertyAnimator, and CADisplayLink.

Dependency: ComputableLayout

To define the various snapping points for the modal, a small helper library written in swift called ComputableLayout is used to configure the size and position of the modal. This library is a very naive layout system/calculator custom built for adaptive-modal.

This helper library is essentially just a function that turns a config (e.g. the desired horizontal/vertical position) into a CGRect value (i.e. raw x, y, width and height values); in other words, this library is used to cheaply calculate layout for a given configuration without having to instantiate a view.

The layout config allows us to add placeholder "layout values" that are then substituted to the real values during calculation; some of these values are:

  • The safe area insets of the screen/window.
  • The keyboard size (if it's currently visible)
  • The CGRect/CGSize of various views, e.g target view, the current window, the device's screen, etc.

The layout config also allows for the composition of multiple "layout values" together, or have conditions that get evaluated during calculation.

The layout config is calculated based on a provided target view/rect, i.e. in the case for adaptive-modal, the target view would be the UITransitionView where the modal UIViewController gets attached to.

In summary: ComputableLayout allows us to compute all the snapping points for a target view's size, this allows for the quick recalculation of all the snapping points whenever there's a layout change for the target view (e.g. when the screen rotates, the window resizes, the appearance of a keyboard, etc).

Dependency: Helpers and Misc

DGSwiftUtilities and react-native-ios-utilities are just helper libraries.

  • DGSwiftUtilities contains shared code + helpers for the swift libraries.
  • react-native-ios-utilities contains shared code + helpers for the react-native libraries on iOS.

Layout and Snapping Points

The layout config you provide defines the snapping point.

  • To be more specific, the layout config is used to calculate the position of the modal. The computed position of the modal in the screen defines the snapping point.
  • A snapping point is a unique position in the screen that we want the modal to “snap to” either via gesture (e.g. a user dragging the modal), or programmatically (via a function call).
  • As the modal is being dragged around, it will morph between each snapping point you defined; using the gesture’s position to drive the interpolation of the modal.
  • Each snapping point has a corresponding “percentage” that is derived based on its position on the screen, in relation to the current modal direction defined in the modal config.
  • The snap point's computed percentage is then used in the interpolation function to drive the modal animation as the user drags the modal around.

Due to the quirks described in the previous bullet points, it is recommended that each snapping point be unique (no repeats or duplicates), and their corresponding computed percentage must change—either increasing or decreasing consistently in one direction.

  • Example 01: A “left to right” modal’s snap points must continually move to the right; i.e. the layout that the snapping points defined must change it’s width and/or increment its horizontal position, such that the modal’s CGRect.maxX (rightmost edge) increases continuously.
  • Example 02: A “bottom to top” modal’s snap points must continually move towards the top; i.e the layout that the snapping points defined must change either it’s height, and/or increment its vertical position, such that the modal’s CGRect.minY (topmost edge) increases continuously.
  • Example 03: A “right to left” modal’s snap points must continually move to the left; i.e. the layout that the snapping points defined must change it’s width and/or decrement it’s horizontal position, such that the modal's CGRect.minX (leftmost edge) decreases continuously.
  • Example 04: A “top to bottom” modal’s snap points must continually move to the bottom; i.e. the layout that the snapping points defined must change it’s height and/or decrement it’s horizontal position, such that the modal's CGRect.minX (leftmost edge) decreases continuously.
  • Summary: You can think of adaptive-modal as a very limited/naive "range interpolator" (e.g. something like lerp). Because of this, the values in the "range" (in this case, the snapping points) must be continuous in one direction only, otherwise the resulting interpolated value (e.g. the position of the modal) will be invalid.
