@acabunoc just starting to poke around this repo, and this seems like something I could contribute as an ice-breaker.

Science-AI has a nice js crossref API client that I'm using in getpapers - very simple to get the title from a doi.

Looks like I should be working on the papers route. In particular, were you thinking that the paper title would be displayed here, when users are contacted?

Should the title be stored, or retrieved on demand?

Pointers / guidance very welcome :)

Hello, hello!

The crossref API sounds perfect! Thanks for the clarifying questions

Good places to display paper title:

  • when users are contacted
  • For these ones, we may need to add the paper title in the actual badge data:
    • In the web view (code), instead of just a DOI under each badge
    • In the widget showing all the badges for one user, display the paper title by each badge (instead of badges + names)
