as you like. IoBroker has been around since 2014 and my plugin for five years. The information I wrote down is actually pretty stable. But if you just want to leave the links on the overview page, that's fine with me

Heh... I didn't realise you were the extension's author! While I don't doubt the longevity of the project, my concern is more that the extension would get potential updates, but we'd stay behind with the description. That's probably less of a problem if you took ownership of this document here, and updated it in addition to your project's pages. But with other projects this might not be the case. Therefore I usually prefer to link to the "original" pages, rather than have a copy of them.

Yes i will

this point i dont understand exactly, with this PR i only add an overview with some screenshots. the link to the github repository with the detailed description is also included

My point is: you're still duplicating information and screenshots. While you'll update the main page, you won't go to all the pages where you've introduced these duplications to keep those up to date as well. This page will become stale and dated, while your main project page evolves. Therefore I'd suggest you have a single source of truth: your page. Everybody else should simply link to yours.

Now the amount of discussion exceeds the value of the information. I will now withdraw the PR
