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 🙏

Verstak - Experimental Front-End Library

Verstak is a experimental library for rapid development of user interfaces. It provides automatic refresh of visual elements upon change of underlying data in a program.

Refresh on the screen is fine-grained, meaning that only those visual elements are refreshed, which really depend on actual data changed. It is achieved by automatic tracking of all dependencies between visual elements and data they use during run time. Such an approach is usually called reactive programming. It frees a programmer from writing boilerplate code for "pushing" changed data to visual elements.

Changing of compound data and refreshing of visual elements on the screen is performed consistently, in other words in "all-or-nothing" way. It means that in case of changing multiple variables in a program actual visual refresh happens only in case of successful change of all the variables. Partial changes are "not visible" to visual elements even in case of exception or cancellation of changes. Such a change of compound data in "all-or-nothing" way is called a transaction.

Verstak supports asynchronous programming out of the box at all the layers, including transactions and visual elements rendering.

Altogether it is called reactive transactional programming. Transactional reactivity means that state changes are being made in an isolated data snapshot and then, once atomically applied, are consistently propagated to corresponding visual components for (re)rendering. All that is done in automatic, seamless, and fine-grained way, because Verstak takes full care of tracking dependencies between visual components (observers) and state objects (observables).

Example application: https://nevod.io (source code).

Verstak is based on Reactronic.
