We have many projects that leverage ReadTheDocs for documentation; it would be awesome if we could at least have a link to the docs in the project card, but if it could be auto-discovered, that would be awesome! LMK if you have any questions - thanks in advance!

Hi @jmertic 👋

This one may be already solved, please see: https://github.com/cncf/landscape2/issues/618#issuecomment-2104097185 🙂

Hey - so yes and no. You are right; you could do it this way. But I view docs as at the level of the icons listed in the top right corner of the card; it's a critical thing we want to drive projects to have and something users will look for.

LMK if this makes sense - like I said what you suggested would work, but an icon at the top right corner would be even better :-)

The problem is that the landscape data file is getting more complex by the day, so we need to be careful about extending it.

Not long ago we added the package_url field for #385 (you requested it actually), recently another user asked for the one I just linked above and now we have this one 😅 So we thought this would keep happening every now and then, and provided a generic mechanism to manage 'other' links.

We'll add this one, as probably a generic documentation link deserves its own icon at the top, but it's important that we rely as much as possible on other_links going forward 😇

I totally understand and appreciate it, @tegioz.

I'll save my request for "most relevant xkcd comic" for the other_links section ;-)
