Features & Improvements about barcodrod.io HOT 3 OPEN

1. The only app catalogue website I know of other than AlternativeTo is ProductHunt. But it's less focused on FOSS software and is more generalized in its categories.

2. Localization and project awareness are two good ways to attract more users. So as the user base grows the demand for localization will grow naturally.

3. Right, makes sense. An in-app help guide could help.

@realgooseman I published barcodrod.io to AlternativeTo here:
https://alternativeto.net/software/barcodrod-io/about/

Will set up separate tracking items for the other two asks (localization + usage tutorial/previews) and close this one out.

Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback @realgooseman, really appreciate it.

1. Yes, discoverability for barcodrod.io could definitely be improved. Will take a look into possibly publishing on AlternativeTo. Please let me know if you have any additional recommendations on places to publish.
2. Noted, will investigate. Localization has always been in my internal backlog but interestingly enough, hasn't actually been asked for before this yet. Thanks for validating that its needed.
3. This could be helpful, but my hypothesis is that users won't typically create a barcode of a certain type unless it's needed for their specific scenario.

For example, users that don't know what CODABAR is won't typically need to create one. That being said, I have considered a "Help" or "How To" page either in-app, here in GitHub, or on https://barcodrod.io. Will need to think about this one a bit.

Tagging as 'enhancement' until I've started some tangible work on these.
