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 🙏

#SimpleFader

###Synopsis

An image fader that makes it possible to fade between any amount of images. The cool part about this fader, is that it only creates two image tags in the markup, no matter how many images are loaded into the array.

The way it works, is that one image will always be hidden from view, either because it's opacity is 0 or because it's being blocked by the overlaying image. When the a image is loaded and faded in, meaning one of the images is hidden, the hidden image will receieve the path of the next image to be shown. This goes on forever and will make sure to start from the beginning of the array once the end has been reached.

It is also possible to set it to randomize. More documentation coming soon.

###Live Demo CodePen Demo: http://codepen.io/SeverinDK/pen/BLdrLN

The demo shows how to use several faders to fade between images. One fader controls the background image, while the other fader controls the imade in the content.

Npm

npm install simplefader

Bower

bower install simplefader

Browser

<script src="path/to/simplefader.js"></script>

When using this plugin in the browser, be sure to include moment.js, moment-timer.js and jQuery on your page first.

###Usage

#####HTML:

<div id="image-container"></div>

#####JavaScript: The first argument of SimpleFader is the container you wish to display the images in. This accepts either an HTMLElement object or the id of the container you wish to use.

var simpleFader = new SimpleFader("#image-container", [
    "http://placehold.it/100x100/4286f4",
    "http://placehold.it/200x200/e8f442",
    "http://placehold.it/300x300/f49542",
    "http://placehold.it/400x400/426bf4",
    "http://placehold.it/500x500/f44242",
]);

simpleFader.setDisplayTime(10000);
simpleFader.setFadeTime(1000);
simpleFader.start();

// Possible to randomize the fader using:
simpleFader.toggleRandomize();

#####Generated Markup:

<div id="image-container">
    <img src="http://www.placehold.it/100x100/4286f4" style="position: absolute;">
    <img src="http://www.placehold.it/200x200/e8f442" style="position: absolute; opacity: 1;">
</div>

###Motivation I wrote the first version of this script shortly after I started writing JavaScript back in 2013. Since then I have used it a few times whenever I needed an image fader for a project, but I was always annoyed about the way it worked. It had a very limited usage and would fail from time to time. After the 2016 rewrite, it has become a lot better and easier to work with. Will continue to update on this from time to time.
