Re: [elixir-core:8280] [Proposal] Add tags to Elixir core functions

No. Data structure-based modules *already* exist. I'm referring to `Conversions`, `Data`, `Operations`, etc. as tags. To help you understand, I'm talking about differences between functions like how words have different parts of speech. I'm not talking about the difference between numbers and

Re: [elixir-core:8286] [Proposal] Add tags to Elixir core functions

That pull request adds categories to the *sidebar*. But per my first comment, we are not going to adopt that style of sidebar organization to Elixir, at the level of granularity you propose, because it will cause confusing as it removes the alphabetical ordering. Other projects are free to adopt

His implementation is correct. It is about categories, not tags. A certain entry can only belongs to a single category. -- *José Valim* www.plataformatec.com.br Skype: jv.ptec Founder and Director of R -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

Okay: https://github.com/elixir-lang/ex_doc/pull/879#issuecomment-411102276 So tags is its own thing. I guess I'll take a look at how `:since` works & see what I can do for a searchable `:category` *tag*. English3000.org: *A data-driven approach to language learning.* On Fri, Sep 14, 2018 at

Re: [elixir-core:8284] [Proposal] Add tags to Elixir core functions

Yes, somebody needs to do this work in ExDoc though. Design the feature, propose and implement it. Once this is supported in ExDoc, then we can discuss the best way to leverage it from Elixir itself. *José Valim* www.plataformatec.com.br Skype: jv.ptec Founder and Director of R On Fri, Sep 14,

Re: [elixir-core:8287] [Proposal] Add tags to Elixir core functions

Okay. So then the tagging feature exists as *lackac * implemented it. However, the advanced search feature and `:category` metadata display (similar to how `:since` is displayed) do not. As I disagree with how he implemented it as a design pattern (
