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

styletron-engine-snapshot

[![npm version][npm-badge]][npm-href] [![dependencies status][deps-badge]][deps-href]

Implementation of the styletron-standard engine interface useful when testing with jest snapshots.

SHOULD NOT BE USED IN PRODUCTION

Installation

yarn add --dev styletron-engine-snapshot

Reasoning

Snapshots generated with styletron-engine-atomic have 2 main issues

  1. non-debuggable classNames in snapshots ("ae af ")

  2. className generation is dependent on internal engine state. If you create a new component, it might break an unrelated snapshot since that component rendering shifts the generation for the old snapshot.

The package provides a deterministic engine that simply returns a JSON.stringify-ed version of the style object (with alpha-sorted keys). A snapshot should not fail UNLESS a style applied to the component changes (which you want). It also makes it easier to detect what exactly changed in the css in the snapshot since we actually now render all of the css values (we are essentially almost rendering the styles inline).

Downsides of This Package/Approach

  1. The engine generates invalid css class names (as they are essentially JSON)
  2. Styles are NOT ACTUALLY APPLIED, so if you have existing tests that check/rely on computed styles, they no longer work.

Future Improvements

There is a path forward that can fix the downsides mentioned above. We can modify the engine into creating valid class names + style declarations PER STYLE, similar to what https://acss.io/ does. That would make it so that snapshots still diff nicely, while actually applying styles as well.
