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 🙏

spotify-remote — Control Spotify from the browser

Synopsis

spotify-remote allows you to control Spotify from a browser. Currently it works by talking to Spotify via its AppleScript interface, so only OS X is supported at the moment.

The aim is to be as mobile & battery-friendly as possible.

Installation

  1. Install Node.js

  2. Install spotify-remote in a shell:

    $ npm install -g spotify-remote

Starting and using spotify-remote

  1. Make sure Spotify is running.

  2. Start the spotify-remote server in a shell:

    $ spotify-remote
  3. Open http://localhost:3333 in your browser

If you need a different port, just use the PORT environment variable:

$ PORT=1337 spotify-remote

Todo

This thing is work in progress and the result of a hack day. It's working relatively well, but of course there's a lot to do. Things that come to mind are:

  • Linux support (Spotify is supposed to have a DBUS-Interface)
  • Windows support (if anyone is up to it)
  • Give this thing a nice design
  • Make it even more battery friendly
  • Test & fix on Android devices
  • Search for Tracks
  • Play arbitrary tracks
  • Playlist support (as in: see the current track in the playlist)

Contributing

Pull requests are very welcome, hack away and contribute! There is a tiny test suite which you can run with:

$ npm test

If you need any help, don't hesitate to ask!
