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 🙏

Important News

Mitigation efforts are underway to ensure that WorldWindJS based projects are insulated from the effects of the NASA WorldWind project suspension.

A community supported and enhanced Web WorldWind library

WorldWindJS is a fork of the popular Web WorldWind library from NASA (with contributions from ESA). This fork provides a release channel for builds based on the latest fixes and features from WebWorldWind's develop branch plus several "cherry-picked" enhancements from the WorldWind community.

This fork exists to support the development of several personal projects, including:

WorldWindJS is made available in the spirit of the NASA motto: For the benefit of all. Show your support for this project by giving it a star!

Enhancements include:

  • A template for creating geo-browser web apps with Bootstrap and Knockout (apps/worldwind-app-template).
  • Keyboard navigation controls for the globe
  • Improved the resolution of Bing imagery
  • Support for a translucent night-image
  • Removed dependency vulnerabilities
  • Fixed WMTS tile geo-registration

Migrating from NASA WebWorldWind

  • The WorldWindJS npm package is available in the npm repository.
  • WorldWindJS is available on the unpkg and jsDelivr CDNs. See CDN providers in the wiki for examples.
  • The project supports npm dependencies on its git repository: See npm dependencies in the wiki for examples.
  • The JS libraries (production and debug) and the image resources are available in the GitHub releases.

Changes from WebWorldWind release 0.9.0

  • NavigatorState has been deprecated. Its properties have migrated to DrawContext.
  • Added the HeatMap from the WorldWind NASAWorldWind/feature/heatmap branch.
  • Added the ShapeEditor from the WorldWind NASAWorldWind/enhancement/shape_editor_refactoring branch.

Changes from the WebWorldWind develop branch

  • WorldWindJS is a drop in replacement for WebWorldWind's worldwind.js and worldwind.min.js libraries built from the WebWorldWind develop branch. There are no changes to the API other than additions.

Web WorldWind

Web WorldWind is a 3D planetary globe engine built in JavaScript for the web, developed by NASA. The European Space Agency has provided valuable contributions to this platform since 2015. Web WorldWind provides a geographic context complete with terrain, and a collection for shapes for displaying and interacting with geographic or geo-located information in 3D and 2D in any modern web browser. High-resolution terrain and imagery is retrieved from remote servers automatically as needed, while enabling developers to include their own custom terrain, imagery, 3D shapes, and position markings.

The project's website, worldwind.arc.nasa.gov has setup instructions, developer guides, API documentation and more.

Get Started

The Web WorldWind Developer's Guide has a complete description of Web WorldWind's functionality. In there, you will find many Web WorldWind resources, including a user guide and documentation for every module file. For complete beginners on WorldWind, the Get Started tutorial is the place to go.

The latest Web WorldWind release provides many simple examples showing how to use most of Web WorldWind's functionality, as well as more involved small applications for reference on how to use Web WorldWind in domain-focused GIS development.
