Start SunPy nuggets?

Open hayesla opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Description

We have discussed this before but I couldn't find an issue open anywhere to track it.

Should we start the idea of SunPy nuggets soon? I think it would be an excellent place for people to showcase what they've been using sunpy for (e.g. a plot or two) and a link to their paper or a description of work in progress, or if they're using it for an operational/planning perspective.

If we were to set up one - where should it live? on the website I would assume. We could also get a DOI for each etc

Some other examples of nuggets within the solar community:

what are people's thoughts? We could solicit a few at the start and then advertise and hope that it will self-fulfil 🚀

I am very much in favour.

I was thinking the blog with a nuggets label/category would be the easiest to setup.

I think it would be great to try to get this off the ground prior to SPD so that we could make an announcement about it there and advertise it. @hayesla would you be able to put something together based on the recent Solar Orbiter flare paper? https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2023arXiv230702396J/abstract

I'm thinking in particular of showing how sunpy was used to make this figure

This could be really short, like 1-2 paragraphs plus the code that shows how to make that figure. It could all be done on the blog in a notebook as well and then we could just tag posts as sunpy nuggets so they show up easily in searches.
