Feature Request: Add a Showcase/Featured Section

Open brnt-toast opened this issue 1 year ago • 7 comments

I found Zola through the Helix Editor. Poked around looking for a section showcasing other projects using Zola and didn't see any. Would there be any interest from the Zola community outside of myself that would interested in seeing who is using the project?

There is https://github.com/getzola/zola/blob/master/EXAMPLES.md but those pages tend to be out of date pretty fast. I think a showcase would make sense for companies/big projects using Zola rather than individuals just using a theme.

The Matrix site refresh uses Zola. Check out the preview here https://matrix.turbo.fish/.

Is there any idea about how many project there are using zola? If we can find out, and have a threshold number in mind that would give us a good jumping off point.

Example: five rock solid projects that meet the criteria, a carousel could be implemented with cards redirecting to the homepage of the project

The Matrix site refresh is now live at Matrix.org. Repo for the site is here

Nice! Any big pain points/issues?

Sorry, I wasn't a contributor to the refresh, so I can't say. I just happened to come across this issue and their repo mentioning using Zola. Thought it was a pretty big project to add/bring to your attention.

Would also love a place to showcase. Just finished two sites in Zola and really enjoyed the process.
