Add website output

[paulzierep]

I made a quick example view of what we could get: https://paulzierep.github.io/datatable-rendering/
We can add it as an iframe to the hub.
Pages for each community could be created here...

Great work @paulzierep 😄
Some initial ideas / comments:

• Could / should the metadata currently in the drop down menu be included as additional (optional columns)?
• I can't locate the tool cherri on bio.tools (see image below). Is this an error?

We can customize the data table as much as we want, so I think the first point should be easy todo, actually any community could customize as they want by manipulation the template for this, but I am not good at all with JS / Frontend stuff, so maybe we find someone still who can help with this, or I will check next week with our dev people ...
The other point is probably again the issue with an link in the wrapper but people forgot to actually add the entry in bio.tools. I just added it.

This is how ToolFinder renders a data table using R

I think I cannot do much this week to improve the table, but feel free to modify to improve the rendering and style.

Hi @paulzierep - is a dedicated website for the tables still of interest? I have some ideas 😄

[paulzierep]

@supernord sure, currently the table is rendered purely via the JS library datatables, but I do not have the JS knowledge to further improve it, also it runs without a backend, purely using the JS library.
If you (or anybody) can use the csv as input and produce a nice view output, I am happy to replace the current view, with an improved version.
We also need a landing page view for the GitHub pages. Maybe just a simple HTML, that provides the complete table as well as as a list of the sub-tables. But also here I am happy for any contribution !

Thanks @paulzierep - would you be happy to use the ELIXIR Toolkit Theme for the landing page? https://elixir-belgium.github.io/elixir-toolkit-theme/
I can generate a PR to set this up.
