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 🙏

A tailwindcss plugin, that makes working with directions a breeze.

Preview

Check out the Live Example to try it for yourself.

Installation

$ npm install --dev tailwind-direction
# or
$ yarn add -D tailwind-direction

Usage

  • Add the tailwind-direction plugin to the tailwind.config.js file
plugins: [
  require('tailwind-direction').default,
],
  • Extend our configuration preset which disables the core tailwind plugins we replace (otherwise, directional utilitites will produce both left and right css rules at the same time).
presets: [
  require("tailwind-direction").configPreset,
],

Warning: If you are modifing corePlugins in your own tailwind.config.css, you have to use the object syntax while extending our configuration preset. This is because the array syntax does not support merging and your own configuration will have priority. If you must use the array syntax you have to manually disable all the core plugins we replace.

  • Change the html tag dir attribute:
<html dir="rtl">
  ...
</html>

dir can be:

dir: "ltr" | "rtl"

That's it, now your tailwind utilities works out of the box with directions in mind.

Comparison

There are two other know packages that solves the same problem:

  • tailwindcss-dir: This package adds new variants ltr, rtl, that you have to add for every utility by hand.

  • tailwindcss-rtl: This package takes a different and a better approach, instead of adding new variants, you replace the targeted variants, like mr, rounded-bl, with it's direction corresponding utilites: ms, rounded-be

  • tailwind-direction 🚀: What this package does, is replacing the core utilites, with direction in mind ones, so you can just plug-in this packages and you are done, no refractoring proccess needed.

Affected core plugins

Currently the affected core plugins are:

  • borderRadius
  • borderWidth
  • clear
  • divide
  • float
  • inset
  • margin
  • padding
  • space
  • textAlign
  • transformOrigin

Not Affected core plugins(But needs to be):

  • (Add new ones if you think others are missing)
