[Pre-ANN] JuliaPackageComparisons

No, I didn’t mean to have comparisons between all possible combinations. Especially if it’s a small package only.

But each tag could have its own summary? And packages can occur in multiple summaries?

I am not sure precisely what you mean. When you say

each tag could have its own summary?

, do you envision tags to be of the type “plotting”, “neural networks” etc? If yes, then what you call tags is currently implemented as sections (seperate pages), and it does not make sense to conflate the two. And the pages are just as I was intending, where a specific domain is discussed on each page. I am envisioning using tags for the packages mentioned on the page, to generate a list of packages which links to the page on which it is discussed. See issue #7, and please chime in if you have ideas!

And packages can occur in multiple summaries?

Again, I am unclear. What do you mean by summary? Is it a condensed paragraph with some concrete recomendations at the start of each section (as I am hearing), or something else? Currently, the format is quite free, and the different summaries (in the first sense) can absolutely mention the same packages.

But to not clutter this thread, I suggest opening issues with concrete proposals for improvements. It is also more constructive.

Just to ping the interested parties, there have been new improvements:

  1. Several sections have been improved
  2. All sections now have a note about their status as unwritten, inviting contributions

With these changes, I feel like the site as a whole feels less like a rough skeleton, and more like a skinny… something. Please check it out, and see if you can write a few sentences about your favorite domain. Everything helps, as I have currently written a lot of the content, but I am the completely wrong person to write about most domains.

I also want to highlight the initiative taken by @Datseris in this issue. When the work there reaches a certain point, I believe that the (coming) page on agents based modeling will be the first proper page of the website!
