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 🙏

Relational Universal Peer-to-peer Storage

npm license travis mind BLOWN

Status: pipe dream

rups is a relational database storing versioned data transparently on a network of peer-to-peer nodes, mostly running in the browser or on Node JS.

rups doesn't actually exist. I once started on this pipe dream before and the result was webdb, but that never went far beyond experimental. Rups isn't even beyond the 'that would be a cool name' phase, but my vision of what it would look like if it was ready, and how awesome it would be, only got clearer in recent times.

Imagine that every user that connects to your website becomes a server themselves. Imagine that the data that user needed would come mostly from other users. Other users in the same area for example, of that are friends or contacts or that work for the same company etc. Imagine a highly available, highly redundant and uber fast database that spans the globe, but only costs 5 dollars per month to host, because the users of the data are the hosts for the database. Imagine every twitter user hosting the tweets of themselves and the people they are following. Every Facebook user hosting their own timeline and that of their friends. Every Youtube user hosting their own channel and that of some other Youtubers they have some relation with. Imagine everyone not having to download everything again and again from a bunch of huge central servers, but instead downloading only from close peers or even localhost. What a world it would be!

Imagine rups. :)
