Convert to JSON?
Then it would either A) not be readable in the README or B) README would need to be generated. The other awesome lists do not have it as JSON.
Would be cool to be more interop-friendly. Want two things though:
- should appear when you come to the repo page, just like other Awesome lists (GitHub supports only Markdown files, right?)
- want to keep it easy to update (Markdown is already too hard because of those weird two trailing spaces, IMO)
Wonder if something could achieve both of those things at once. Like a website with a form to CRUD the list where it auto-generates pull requests to modify both the Markdown and the JSON file.
Sure. Or extract JSON from README. Easy too.
Yeah, this was my first idea. Have some kind of script or parser (needs to be fairly forgiving, probably) that can generate JSON from the readme.
You can include HTML comments in Markdown. That could help a bit.
However, do you really think someone will want to have this data in JSON? And if yes, for what purpose?
@robinpokorny Site (could be in this repo even). Also handy for conf organizers but of course you still have to transform the data to fit your system.
@stojanovic expressed some interest in helping with this one too just now.
Yes, idea is to have API endpoint and AWS Lambda function that will convert list to JSON format.
Guys, we need a database with a GraphQL API endpoint, with foreign keys to events each person has spoken at, some animated UI, and a mobile app. 💥
Or, you know, just a document. 🤷♂️
Hey guys, I created https://confcitizens.com/ which is based on awesome-speakers data, but I've already started and it’s still in progress to add more information about speakers (including past/future talks and so on).
Everything is converted to JSON now (https://github.com/yakovlevyuri/confcitizens/blob/master/data/speakers.ts)
And the website is open sourced ofc https://github.com/yakovlevyuri/confcitizens. Want to hear your feedback and feel free to contribute!
@yakovlevyuri Added you on Twitter. Let's get in touch and see what we can do.
