- Present 'downloads', 'version', etc as pages
- Don't show any badges on the index page,
just links to categories.
- Tweak search so we can search all badges
from the index page, but without rendering
every badge as soon as we press a key.
I rewrote the frontend in React using a module bundler. It's matched feature-for-feature with the current frontend, with only slight changes in the styling. I did not fuss about making the styling identical; the badge popup looks particularly different.
This makes the front end much easier to develop. I'm really looking forward to implementing #701, to which this paves the way.
This makes light use of Next.js, which provides webpack config and dev/build tooling. We’ll probably replace it with create-react-app or our own webpack setup because unfortunately it comes with a lot of runtime overhead (the build is 400k).
Let’s open new issues for bugs and features, and track other follow-ups here: https://github.com/badges/shields/projects/1
