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 🙏

UK Inflation

Tools for working with inflation-adjusted prices in the UK.

Uses "Composite Price Index" data provided by the Bank of England.

Refer to the Bank of England site for the methods used to adjust prices against inflation and caveats in the calculation data and techniques.

Usage

Require the module the usual way

> var ukinflation = require('ukinflation');

To find out what goods and services costing £23.60 in 1975 would have cost in 1985:

> ukinflation.adjustCost(23.60, 1975, 1985);
65.33768545994066

To get the average inflation between two years:

> ukinflation.averageInflation(1975, 1985)
10.719769831985682

You can also pass in Date objects if it's more convenient:

> var from = new Date('1975');
> var to = new Date('1985');
> ukinflation.adjustCost(23.60, from, to);
65.33768545994066

Note that there's no data for the present year, so you can't convert to "present day" prices;

> ukinflation.adjustCost(23.60, 1975, new Date());
Error: No UK inflation data available for the year 2016
