Thanks for sharing, Rahul Although I knew about Cassandra.link, I somehow had not heard about Cassandra.tools. I love the current Cassandra.link btw, I think the layout flows nicely and it feels easier to browse the articles and news compared to last time I looked.
As for Cassandra.tools, it indeed seems to be very similar to what I put together. I agree that a static site generator is an option, since contributors would typically be comfortable with adding content via submitting PRs with Markdown. Otoh what I feel I'm missing is the nice grouping into categories that http://35.184.128.58/ has. There I do like the structure and smooth flow of jamstackthemes.dev. Do I read you correctly that you are open to collaborate and build upon cassandra.tools rather than http://35.184.128.58/? To be specific, is it aligned with your goals for cassandra.tools that it would be a neutral community site? (I actually don't know if it needs to be under any kind of formal Cassandra project supervision, but either way should be similar in spirit to what content can currently go into https://cassandra.apache.org/_/ecosystem.html. As a final comment... If we are going back to static site generators, I guess I should mention for the record that simply evolving the current https://cassandra.apache.org/_/ecosystem.html is an option too. henrik On Wed, Jul 27, 2022 at 6:59 PM Rahul Xavier Singh < rahul.xavier.si...@gmail.com> wrote: > Henrik > > What a great find!
