Hello Kohsuke, thank you for your quick reply. :)
I uploaded a video, that explains the whole site a bit more, but a written summary may be better since I did not want to wake the family. https://youtu.be/YI5UI0fbhGY On Wednesday, March 9, 2016 at 12:40:35 AM UTC+1, Kohsuke Kawaguchi wrote: > > This looks great.

One is searching the list and the other filtering the current results you see. That said, you can apply e.g. a filter on "tags" to be "builder" this will filter the from the current search-result set and it is sticky. Meaning you switch to the next page you will only see plugins with the builder tag. To remove this filter you press all. > > - Categories on the left --- is it related to Wiki labels?

React has the right on naming. ;) Problem are this un-closed <li> <div> <etc.> which are then temper the overall design. I am not sure about a good solution yet, but in apache cocoon I would have used https://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/userdocs/html-generator.html to get a valid html and then display it but yeah, have to thing to do similar thing before showing the description markup. > Also, the core should define a mechanism to package an icon into a plugin, > which I think would help an effort like this. > > +1 that would get rid of some code that I think is not our concern. salu2 > > 2016-03-08 13:28 GMT-08:00 Thorsten Scherler <[email protected] > <javascript:>>: > >> Hi all, >> >> let me introduce myself and the reason why I am writing to this list. >> >> I am Thorsten Scherler a long time user of Jenkins/Hudson at work and at >> Apache where I am still VP of Cocoon. >> I have a long record of java programming but since 2 years I am doing >> exclusively node.js/react.js projects. >> >> I saw >> https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Jenkins+2.0+Website+vision+from+Daniel+Beck >> >> and started working on a plugin micro site with Gus.
