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 🙏

Tailwind CSS Scrim Gradients

Gradient scrim overlays are a common pattern employed to preserve legibility of text, or to suggest further content out-of-bounds. These utilities allow you to pair an edge or axis with a distance value, and produce an eased gradient overlay: scrim-b-12.

  • Uses theme scales for color and distance values
  • Multiple edges can be specified and overriden
  • Allows the use of opacity modifiers without stacking conflicts
  • Easing subdues appearance of hard edges when gradient begins

Installation

Install the plugin:

npm install -D tailwindcss-scrim-gradients

Then add it to your tailwind.config.js file:

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
	theme: {
		// ...
	},
	plugins: [
		require('tailwindcss-scrim-gradients'),
		// ...
	],
};

Usage

Combine color and distance utilities to generate a scrim:

<div class="scrim-b-16 dark:scrim-black/70">
	<!-- ... -->
</div>

Shorthand utilities work exactly as you would expect:

<div class="scrim-20 scrim-x-12 scrim-r-0">
	<!-- ... -->
</div>

Caveats

The scrim uses the ::after pseudo-element to apply the overlay, and can not be used with the respective Tailwind variants. This also means that the containing element will default to relative positioning. Whatever position value you set will be respected, so long as you do not specify 'static'.

Gradient stacking is achieved through mask-image, which has good browser support when used with PostCSS plugins such as autoprefixer.
