Languages & Linters could be merged

[viatsko]

Some languages are already providing linters, probably we could merge them - I'm also thinking about table format in that section

[SamVerschueren]

Care to provide an example of how you would show it in a table?

[viatsko]

I'm currently thinking on Syntaxes, Linters, Snippets, Other columns and let the same packages be on the same level in the first two columns (as we might end up of duplicating a lot of packages in Syntax & Linters category as a lot of them are actually doing two things at once)

[yozlet]

Plenty of language packages are also including debuggers, intellisense etc., mostly using MS's Language Server Protocol - for example Python, Ruby, Rust, etc.

It might be simpler to create a list of languages, then for each language just list the best packages for that language and what they cover.

[viatsko]

Agree, I've started expanding the list into sections since many languages got "plugins ecosystem" around them during these years. Will close once I'm done with this.

Also grouping all snippets package for a language under one section would be better ie:

---

Python

• Python Ext

Linters

Snippets

Flask

Django

---

Or something like

Python

• Language-specific packages

Flask

• Any Flask related package

Django

• Any[ Django related package

What about Linters that lint more than one language? How would we deal with that?
