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 🙏

RulersGuides.js

This Javascript package creates Photoshop-like guides and rulers interface on a web page.

DEMO

Main window:

Menu:

Guides are created by click-and-dragging corresponding horizontal or vertical ruler. Guide position is shown while dragging and on mouse over.

It is possible to open/save created guides as grids (Note: grids will be saved on a page location basis, so it's not possible to use the same grids in another browser window/tab).

 

Rulers can be unlocked, so that one of the rulers will scroll along the page and the other will be always visible.

Guides can be snapped to defined number of pixels.

Detailed info mode is available, which shows position and size of regions created by the guides. Works on guide position change too.

Guides can be snapped to DOM elements (experimental, use with caution, can be slow or unresponsive on complex pages with lots of elements).

Following hotkeys are available:

  • Toggle rulers - Ctrl + Alt + R
  • Toggle guides - Ctrl + Alt + G
  • Toggle rulers and guides - Ctrl + Alt + A
  • Clear all guides - Ctrl + Alt + D
  • Save grid dialog - Ctrl + Alt + S
  • Open grid dialog - Ctrl + Alt + O
  • Lock/unlock rulers - Ctrl + Alt + L
  • Open Snap to dialog - Ctrl + Alt + C
  • Toggle detailed info - Ctrl + Alt + I
  • Toggle snap to DOM - Ctrl + Alt + E

Look-and-feel can be adjusted using CSS.

RulersGuides.js is available as a bookmarklet, please see bookmarklet.js file provided with the package.

For IE users there is a bookmarklet_ie.js file, which loads necessary packages externally due to IE bookmark size restriction.

You can copy and include them locally by changing paths in the bookmarklet.

RulersGuides.js is available as an extension for Google Chrome browser, download it here, and drag and drop downloaded file to extensions tab (chrome://extensions).

RulersGuides.js requires Event.js and Dragdrop.js packages, which can be acquired at the following links:

Event.js

Dragdrop.js

Currently tested in:

  • Chrome 24
  • Firefox 18
  • IE 7, 8 and 9 (without grid saving functionality)
