@arianvp:matrix.orgArianI want to give a shot at adding the new AMIS to the homepage. But I was wondering. Can the Website build access the network? The easiest would be for the AWSTable.astro to pull in either from https://nixos.github.io/amis/images.json or even just put the ec2.DescribeImages call in Astro directly12:19:13

@arianvp:matrix.orgArianOr should I pull in the list using client-side JS?12:19:43
@arianvp:matrix.orgArianclient-side JS probably makes more sense?12:19:59
@garbas:matrix.orggarbas Arian: You can do both. But I think having this done client-side would be best. 13:03:34
@garbas:matrix.orggarbasAnd I'm sure you'll be able to figure out how to add client side script with Astro (https://docs.astro.build/en/guides/client-side-scripts/#using-script-in-astro)13:04:22

Is this the correct place to suggest a change to the little video that's in the front page of https://nixos.org/ ?
I love it but I'd suggest to change the comments or just remove the comments saying "Pause the video and take the time to understand the file being displayed".
The video is assuming that 1/ people have the time for that 2/ nix is easy to understand. It's probably also letting down ppl that try to read it but fail to understand.
I'd vote to change the comment to actually explain a little bit what the file is doing.
It's kind of weird to advice doing that for a video that's meant to showcase nix IMO.
Yes this would be the correct place. I can answer all the questions why it is the way it is. But if you have a better example I'd love to see it. It is hard to strike a balance between informative enough and not too long, especially with Nix.

I fully agree about the balance being hard. I wanted to make a PR earlier to show what I had in mind but didn’t have time yet 😓 I’ll have one shortly

Hello, a discussion is happening within this issue and its seems like you would be the team contact for it

Hello again, any plan to integrate a script to automatically bump package count on both search.nixos.org & nixpkgs? I proposed a simple script on the issue, which can surely be improved.

I don't know anything about elm, and I am unsure on what to exactly do to help, so your help would be appreciated to sort this out!
