Package categories about awesome-hyper HOT 12 CLOSED

Would be nice to at least group related plugins together – for example, hyper-statusline should be next to hyperline, and hyper-lastpass should be next to hyper-1password. Lots of other examples. At the moment it's just random.

Same for the themes – for example, all the solarized ones should be together. I appreciate that finding characteristics by which to sort or group the themes is harder than with the plugins, though.

If this is too difficult, even alphabetical order would be better than random, though nowhere near as good as a logical order.
(I know they are listed in the order they were added, but that's effectively random.)

lets close it for now, and reopen when will do have a lot of packages

from awesome-hyper.

How about we try to draft some general categories? Things like Productivity (1pass), Fun (the John Ceena one), and a few others. Maybe try 4 to start out with?

@darahak Nope, feel free to submit a PR now! I think two steps is best - submit categories, and then we can start alphabetically sorting once we've got categories to minimize the merge conflicts in the meantime 👍

I've been thinking about this for themes for a while - what would your suggestions for categories be?

from awesome-hyper.

I agree, it would be a good start to create a few categories, and sorting them alphabetically would be neat.
I'll come back with some ideas.

Productivity

Pretty much anything that changes Hyper to help the user, with no configuration needed, or not much.

Examples:

• hyperterm-1password
• hyperterm-lastpass
• hyperterm-tabs
• hyperlinks

Customization

Includes packages that allows the user to change Hyper's appearance and functionalities.

Examples:

• hyperterm-visor
• hyper-stylesheet
• hyperterm-overlay
• hyperterm-transparent-bg

Fun

Packages that are not really useful, but adds a bit of entertainment in the terminal.

Examples:

• hyper-john
• htyt

And of course, we could sort all packages alphabetically.
Any suggestions?

@darahak Love it! Looks perfect. 👌

@bnb Should I wait for second opinions before making a PR?
Also, I'm worried about merge conflicts with other PRs if I apply an alphabetic sort on the lists.

from awesome-hyper.

FYI if I make the alphabetical sort, I will also need to update the contributing rules.

Link additions should be added to the bottom of the relevant category.

For contributors who use Atom, it has a package for sorting Markdown lists (could help if the edited list gets too long).

@darahak I was thinking about the sorting of them today. Ideally we'd like to not need people to jump out to a text editor to sort them correctly. I think the best way is to note it in the CONTRIBUTING.md file, in the PR template, and then manually check ourselves. when a PR is submitted.

One thing that would be nice is to automate it. At this point, I'm fairly frustrated with the build system we're using. I'd like to rework it, and would be interesting to see if we could integrate alphabetical order into the build process.

from awesome-hyper.

We could probably automate a check with Travis CI for example and then, use something like Danger to automatically ask for changes on PRs that don't follow the guidelines?

Did you mean automate the sort, and not just the review process? I'm wondering if it's possible.
