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 🙏

Coding Challange

As a coding challange, I was tasked with parsing 3 text files containing properties of a person each delimited by a different character. I then needed to combined that data into one table and finally produce an output displaying the data sorted by different columns.

Solution

As a solution to this problem I created a module called TextParserMatrix. This module facilitates parsing, sorting, printing, and maintaining separate strings of delimited text as one table. This abstraction made solving the coding challange much easier. Also this is something I can see myself adding to and using again in the future.

Build

  1. Ensure that you have NodeJS installed on your OS: https://nodejs.org/en/download/
  2. Download the repo, navigate into the project folder from the command line window, and run npm install.
  3. Running npm start from the command line will print the code test results in the console window and produce a target_output.txt file in the project's root folder.

Test

  1. Install mocha globally - npm install mocha -g
  2. Run npm test from the command line
