[OTHER] `Repo` or `Repositories`

What would you like to share?

As a non tech person is the wording Repo understandable? Even GitHub uses Repositories as wording. Should we change the wording too? image

I agree with this. Repositories seems to be a better option

Great suggestion! We are limited with space on the navigation. We just added statistics to see what buttons are added the most/least, especially as it has been suggested that we reduce the amount of buttons on the Navbar.

I will add the talk discussion label and we can revisit this in a few weeks when we have a good set of analytics.

Opinion

I think repositories would be a better option.

Possible bugs

But the nav bar might be overflowing like this 👇: Screenshot from 2023-08-30 14-22-54

This is an easy fix so I don't think this would be a problem and also I noticed that the nav break point should be changed as the overflow starts to happen even for the word repos which can be addressed in this issue instead of creating another. Screenshot from 2023-08-30 14-22-36

Possible solutions

  • Change the Repos to Repositories
  • Change the Break Point which hamburger appears

My suggestion would also to update it everywhere not only in the navbar. Making it consistent.

Great collaboration everyone 👍

Some of my thoughts:

  • Yes we should update it everywhere
  • Maybe also have a glossary page in the docs
  • Also we should reduce the nav links - we have some analytics setup so we can see which ones are more/less popular

Glossary page in Docs has been done: https://www.biodrop.io/docs/open-source-roadmap/glossary
