Tools tagging

Open pmccloghrylaing opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

The list of tools is excellent, but big, and most of them are untagged, making filtering relatively useless.

I've recently been going through the process of selecting tooling for a style guide where I had some specific requirements. Based on that I thought tagging tools based on the following would be useful (some already exist):

  • Tool type: Framework (e.g. Bootstrap or Foundation) / Generator
  • Runtime: PHP / Ruby / Node / etc.
  • CSS Preprocessort: LESS / SASS / SCSS
  • Template languages or frameworks: HTML / HAML / Handlebars / React / Angular / Custom(?) / Comments (e.g. KSS)
  • Can it generate a static site? Static

I'm happy to put some work into updating the tags if there's agreement on how a better way to tag the tools. Applying some tags based on the generator list at https://github.com/davidhund/styleguide-generators seems like a good place to start.

Hey @pmccloghrylaing, thanks for this! Yep, we're in the process of doing a pretty major overhaul of how the site is structure, and this more nuanced tagging would be tremendously helpful. Would you be willing to put together a sample example using this example and share it here? Then we can go through and bash it all out. Thanks so much!
