Resource Index (res-index) is a searchable index for development resources, including github repo and npm packages.<p>Why yet another index?<p>In short, the search functionality on google and github are unsatisfied. This project aim to build a better alternative and potentially improve google's search result.<p>What's the actual problem I'm facing?<p>Sometime I want to search for a npm package but google cannot return that result even after I added "npm", "github", or even the combination of exact author username and package name.<p>Similarly, it's sometime hopeless to search for a non-popular package by name on github if you cannot recall the author's username.<p>Sometime google can not show the corresponding npm page but instead shows it on "socket.dev" or "snyk.io".<p>Pasting the exact npm url in subsequence search doesn't seem effective at hinting google to index the pages.<p>This project aim to actively index some github repositories and npm packages to enable more inclusive searching.<p>In addition, this project try be SEO-friendly. Hopefully, it can improve google's search result overtime.<p>Source Code: <a href="https://github.com/beenotung/res-index">https://github.com/beenotung/res-index</a>
Very cool thing!<p>If I was to add something it looks really brutalist. On one hand, the buttons. Some parts looks news - like the menu button. It dooes't look good.<p>Secondly there is no about link. The page does not provide description. Github project provides.<p>I would also provide binary blobs of data as a release. We should provide not only open source, but also open data?
