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

Synergipsum

npm version

This goofy module returns strings of awful synergy speak, like what you'd expect to hear in the average tech startup pitch or pointy haired boss. Best enjoyed when read to yourself in the voice of Bill Lumbergh.

The module exports a SynergIpsum constructor with a create function; instances of SynergIpsum provide a generate function that takes an argument for the number of sentences of blather you'd like.

Pretty simple, but probably also half-baked, so use at own risk, without warranty of fitness expressed or implied, void where prohibited, you'll shoot your eye out, etc.

Example installation and invocation

npm install synergipsum
node

var synergy = require('synergipsum')
var blather = synergy.create(7) // synergy speak with 7 sentences
blather.generate()

Maybe this will do more later, and the vocabulary might expand over time. This is also my first ever Node.js module, so feel free to offer suggestions, pull requests, and all the neighborly things.

Thanks

I could not have made this module without inspiration from similar things with established vocabularies. I borrowed the majority of syngergipsum's vocabulary from the most excellent Web Economy Bullshit Generator.

Hopefully its output is as fun for you as it was for me to learn a little with. Speaking of which, I'd like to thank Pedro Teixeira (@pgte) for his fantastic NodeTuts screencasts, and in particular for #17, which was the inspiration for this module. :)

I highly recommend checking out both NodeTuts and Pedro's "Hands-on Node.js" book as well.
