Ability to add free form tags to a guide
Currently we're categorizing guides based on a pre-defined list of 'stacks'. This is great for neatly organizing the guides in the github repository since all guides for a stack live in the same directory. However, these stacks are very generic and that poses a few problems:
- Difficult for readers to quickly find specific content their interested in
- For example, it's hard for a reader to see if there are guides written specifically using the twitter API. Right now a guide using the Twitter API would probably fall into the 'Interesting APIs' stack.
- The user would have to sort through all the guides in the 'Interesting APIs' stack to find what they want.
- Difficult for authors to tag their guides with more specific information
- This is essentially the same as problem 1 but from the author's point of view. Author's could make it easier to find their guides if they could provide some custom metadata such as a tag.
