Truncate the /tools section

Open bep opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

I had a look at the tools section

https://gohugo.io/tools/

And that needs some gardening. Looking through it, 1) I have never heard of 90% of the items 2) I suspect many of them aren't "notable enough".

I understand that people want a link to their project they have worked hard on, but we cannot be a link collection.

I suggest that we start a little fresh -- make "Tools" a one-pager and remove everything but the obvious (not sure what that should be, but I can certainly try if we agree on this).

I agree! I think instead it could be useful to include a link to something like: https://github.com/topics/hugo

That way users can see all projects tagged with Hugo and sort by Best match, most stars, most recently updated etc.

I agree the Tools page is better kept short. As I commented to @jmooring in #1512#issuecomment-1079740244 I think that there should be a pointer to a 'wiki' post or a discussion on the Hugo forum.

I agree with him that this is better done as full HOWTOs elsewhere and the forum seems the best place to me.

Also...

  • Move https://gohugo.io/content-management/comments/ to the tools section, or whatever it will called once trancated and regorganized. The Disqus setup is referenced elsewhere in the documentation.
  • Incorporate relevant thoughts from #2376.
