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 🙏

romsift

romsift is utility for sifting through large ROM collections.

It is intended to help pare down large romsets (particularly no-intro) to remove unwanted duplicates and make browsing the files easier.

It works by scanning a directory of files and grouping them by their title, ignoring any tags (text in parentheses).

With the sift command, you can delete duplicate files for a title. You choose which file(s) you wish to keep, and let romsift delete the others.

With the clean command, you can rename files to remove the tags. romsift will only remove the tags that every title has in common, leaving the unique tags. For example, cleaning the following:

Popular Game (USA).zip
Popular Game (USA) (Beta).zip

will become:

Popular Game.zip
Popular Game (Beta).zip

because every file for Popular Game has the USA tag.

However, cleaning:

Popular Game (Japan).zip
Popular Game (USA).zip
Popular Game (USA) (Beta).zip

results in no changes:

Popular Game (Japan).zip
Popular Game (USA).zip
Popular Game (USA) (Beta).zip

because each tag is still necessary to differentiate the files.
