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 🙏

webtorrentify-server

A microservice for generating .torrent files from URLs

What is this?

This is the software running on https://webtorrentify.now.sh, a free service to auto-generate .torrent files from "normal" URLs of the http:// and https:// variety. The torrent files generated are specifically designed to be compatible with WebTorrent in the browser, but they should work with any Bittorrent client.

I 💖 WebTorrent but how do I make a .torrent?

It's easy now! webtorrentify.now.sh has a single API endpoint with a single query parameter, href, the URL of the file you want to convert to a torrent.

wget https://webtorrentify.now.sh/?href=https://nodejs.org/dist/v6.10.2/node-v6.10.2-linux-x64.tar.gz

And now you have node-v6.10.2-linux-x64.tar.gz.torrent.

That is nice, but I want to run my own server

Sure you do!

git clone https://github.com/wmhilton/webtorrentify-server
cd webtorrentify-server
npm install
npm start
