FAQ

Will there ever be a definitive-opensource website?

A website is definitely on the roadmap. It would provide much requested features like tag based filtering and, on the backend, automate much of what we currently have to do manually. However, for the foreseeable future, the list will remain as a markdown file for one reason: to keep things simple. The current system lets me focus solely on the projects within. The complexities of web development seem unnecessary and an added pain for a task that can suffice, for now, as a markdown file.

 

The current system could also be considered a stepping stone to guage the community's needs prior to building a website, which would inherently be far more complex.
