Dominic Mills: Here’s another small-scale project for GSoD: Go over existing tutorials on nix.dev and add tags to improve search engine visibility. We know it’s a problem; people mostly find third party stuff because it has been around longer. I’ve seen the Google dashboard.

In fact, anyone can do any subset of that right now. It’s boring and tedious, so if it doesn’t happen by volunteer effort it may happen with a subsidy.

@dooy:matrix.org@dooy:matrix.orgI am wondering if there's a specific strategy for organizing tags from general to specific topics, like to be more consistent with naming? 16:33:40

I suggest starting with something more simple-minded and just write something down at all, in order to figure out which topics even warrant a tag and what to call it.

@olafklingt:matrix.org@olafklingt:matrix.orgis this linkcheck error for PRs deterministic? have you seen it and do you have already an idea what to do about it? https://github.com/NixOS/nix.dev/actions/runs/8023716642/job/21944512721?pr=92123:15:22

@danielsidhion:nixos.devdanielsidhionI just did a re-run and it seems like a real issue, I opened an issue about it02:33:33
@lurkki:pikaviestin.fiLurkki Noticed makeDesktopItem is undocumented, in which section in the manual should it go? 10:27:13
@danielsidhion:nixos.devdanielsidhionIf you want to use an existing section, "trivial build helpers" is probably the best one to put it in. If we were to create a new section, what sort of things would you like to group together with it (so we can figure out a better section name)?11:27:57
