Good job OP, I found some new stuff thanks to you.

everyone else should stop whining and go post in a thread they care about instead of bicker over what "normal players may do" even tho its a 30 year old game

I've deployed version 1.1.0 of the site, here's the key changes based on feedback from this thread;

  • Addons maintained by the Windower Team are no longer listed on the directory as these are easily available from the Windower launcher.

  • A navigation bar has been added to the top of the site containing the links to the repo submission form, a new form for addon authors to opt out of being listed at all, and the changelog link, which has been moved to the top of the website from the footer.

  • The list has been split into two views, one that shows addons sorted per repo, and one that shows just addons. Regardless of the source, all addon links now go to their repo's top page, instead of the Lua code itself. The repo view shows addons in a toggleable list.

  • Where available, licenses for addons are now shown alongside each addon's name.

  • The repo owner and addon author are clearly separated now, in case they differ.

  • Some manual review has occurred to remove repos that are obviously public backups of people's Windower folders, libraries, and addons intended for private server usage. As such, this has knocked the total addons down to 560, this should result in an easier to browse and more functional directory. Further attempts will be made in the future to manually review repos and remove those that are just public backups or not relevant to this site's purpose.

  • A "Back to Top" button has been added (woo)


(A note for Lili, since I don't have a good way of contacting you: Your addons are not listed in the directory right now, as I didn't want to make the assumption you would be happy with the changes made, but please take a look when you get a chance, and if you're happy with your addons being listed once more, let me know, and I will sort it out, thank you once again for your feedback)
