svgo VS MailHog

image-shrinker is a simple, easy to use open source tool for shrinking images. Under the hood it uses pngquant, mozjpg, SVGO, and gifsicle. You can also install these tools individually if you need to compress some images. I often use pngquantafter exporting PNGs for web projects from Figma or similar tools. I literally run it like this:

In addition to the techniques we’ve discussed so far, there are optimization tools available that can further enhance SVG images. These tools, such as SVGO and ImageOptim, offer valuable features to reduce file size and clean up SVG markup, making it easier to standardize and optimize the overall performance of SVG assets.

Open the terminal and cd to the folder containing your SVG files and run the command inkscape *.svg --export-plain-svg --export-type=svg And Inkscape is going to save your files as plain SVG and append the word "_out" to them. Note : Plain SVG files are not optimized for the web, you should use SVGO or any other Node.js tool, there are a lot of them on MPM

Look at software you use and identify underlying libraries.

SVGO https://github.com/svg/svgo is used by many graphics software but hasn't seen donations commensurate with usage https://opencollective.com/svgo

There are still a lot of things cl-djula-svg is capable of doing. For the immediate future, I am looking at adding optimization capabilities something like what svgo is doing for svgr. If you know anything else needs to be done to improve the package, please open an issue in the repository.

Writing/patching JS/TS-based CLI tools like Prettier or SVGO

Mailhog

hey HN, I recently published an article going deep into email previewing (in Ruby on Rails, but I think it's relevant beyond Rails).

MailCatcher (https://github.com/sj26/mailcatcher) and MailHog (https://github.com/mailhog/MailHog) are super handy and easy to run locally. Both spin up an SMTP server which you can direct mail to, and give you a nice web interface to browse mail and preview it.

Happy to answer any question! thanks, harrison

https://github.com/mailhog/MailHog This is set up for our test environments. Worth looking into

Does it say it's being send on localhost or on production? How is it "saying" it's being sent. We just setup mailhog to test emails for local development.

They should definitely invest in a chaos monkey (like Jim https://github.com/mailhog/MailHog/blob/master/docs/JIM.md)

depends on the infrastructre setup, but if you're able to specify smtp server the backend will use you can you something like https://github.com/mailhog/MailHog or https://github.com/rnwood/smtp4dev to catch any sent email, regardless of email address and read it via the respective api. Both mailhog and smtp4dev have decent api documentation.
