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 🙏

Gnome: Automatically fetch wallpapers from reddit

Simple script that fetches a random, high-rated, lanscape-ish shaped image from a specified reddit (currently hard-coded to "/r/earthporn"), and then sets that as background on Gnome.

Sample

Inspired by styli.sh. What I was missing from styli.sh is the ability to only fetch landscape images. A lot of the images on the reddits I liked were portrait, so no good for a desktop background. This script also avoid duplicates and records a history (in ~/.local/share/reddit-background/history.json) where you can also get a description of the current image.

The script now also adds the description of the image as a caption onto the image itself.

Installation:

Install ImageMagick, e.g., on Ubuntu using

sudo apt install imagemagick

Then:

sudo npm install -g reddit-backgrounds

Usage:

gnome-reddit-background

To add a cron-job that replaces your background every hour, run crontab -e and add:

0 * * * * gnome-reddit-background
