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 🙏

Readme

ssum

ssum is a command line tool for checksum generation with no dependencies - ideal for paranoiacs like me :D

Installation

yarn global add https://github.com/szarouski/ssum or
npm i https://github.com/szarouski/ssum -g

Note that ssum package from npm only contains README.md and nothing else. This is done on purpose so you install package from github. This will ensure that code will be the same as on github as you can't see what you're installing from npm up front.

Usage

ssum, ssum ~/downloads, ssum ~/downloads/file sha512

Check ssum --help for most up-to-date usage examples. ssum can generate checksum using algorithms supported by your OS for file or directory. Safe for large files.

Removal

yarn global remove ssum or npm rm ssum -g
