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 🙏

Readme

react-pinboard

<ReactPinboard> is a component for responsive Pinterest-style layouts. Pass in any number of children to see them rendered in equally-weighted, dynamic columns.

Props

  • cols: Can be a static number like 3 or an array of media objects, e.g.:

    [
      { media: '(max-width: 1000px)', cols: 4 },
      { media: '(max-width: 500px)', cols: 3 },
      { media: '', cols: 2 }
    ]

    The first-matching media query will be used, and the columns will be adjusted in real-time as the browser squishes and stretches.

  • spacing: The vertical and horizontal space between columns and children. Can be any CSS length value, e.g. 2em, 15px, 3vh.

Usage

Download on npm: npm install react-pinboard

Sample usage:

const ReactPinboard = require('react-pinboard');

const cols = [
  { media: '(max-width: 1000px)', cols: 4 },
  { media: '(max-width: 500px)', cols: 3 },
  { media: '', cols: 2 }
];

ReactDOM.render(
  <ReactPinboard cols={cols} spacing="2em">
    <img src="..." />
    <div>
      <h3>Heading</h3>
      <p>...</p>
    </div>
    <SomeOtherReactComponent />
    ...
  </ReactPinboard>,
  document.querySelector('pinboard-container');
);

Features

  • Accepts any child types. You can even mix and match images, text, and other rich components, to create a pinboard that's truly customized.

  • Child order is preserved. The children will appear in the pinboard in left-to-right, top-to-bottom order. This means that if your children have an obvious numeric order, you don't need to worry about adjacent children being spread way across from each other.

  • Auto-weighted columns. ReactPinboard is economical — it takes up as little vertical space as possible by ensuring that the columns are filled as close to equal-weigh as possible (while maintaining child order).

  • Safe for server-rendering. The server can't measure viewport size, so it assumes a "mobile-first" approach and determines column number from the last value of the cols array. The server-render also doesn't know the rendered child heights for column weighting, so it equally-weights the columns. This is naive, but hopefully close enough to the re-layout on mount that it still feels fast for your end users.
