1. I admit the website is light on details. I guess the tagline and copy didn't entice you at all. Do you buy/sell things though services like craigslist? You just may not be the target demographic.
2. I use mailchimp for the email signups. Youre welcome to use a temp email service if you like, but they might block some.
3. the sign up form might might need a copy change: sign up for the waitlist.
At this point, web app (desktop/mobile) and possibly an ios app in the near future. You are completely right though, this info is missing from the homepage.
I agree in as much as the small component I use is quite well supported and popular. Its a sort of insurance that I don't have to worry about bugs and it running stale. A lot of components in component seem to be written by a single person, and don't get much attention, which to me, is a liability.
Hey! (I made this)
Stars do have more rating than the other metrics, which evens things out. Yes, larger libraries like jQuery are rating higher because of the ranking system, but thats actually accurate if you are looking at 'popularity'; furthermore, there are only a few projects that are on this scale.
Try 'trending' if you want to see libraries that are growing quickly.
Im the creator of JSDB, so thanks for the mention! In the interest of equality, theres a few more that are worth taking a look at: microjs.com, and http://jster.net/
Ah good point on the first, and working on the second! want to be a bit more transparent, but basically, its simply a combination of the other factors listed with some logical balancing through multipliers. (ie. stars is weighted more than contributor count)
With two unrelated projects I don't see a huge problem... People are not going to confuse the two, and I dont want to go into which is "more appropriate". Both jsdb.org and jsdb.io are completely free to name themselves as they want. No trademarks, no infringements. It was honestly a really nicely appropriate and memorable name for the service.
It was also a steal for a four letter domain name :)
Thanks for the kind words. The sort by should only list the current page/category. You might be confused because "sort by" ignores pagination and rearranges all of the libraries in that category, and only then re-paginates it... Or am I misunderstanding your comment?
I loved google Finance (RIP) and when they shut down, decided to build something to scratch the same itch.
Would love thoughts, ideas, bugs, etc!
