Docs: Adopting Dagger by shykes · Pull R...

Can I ask about Daggerverse improvements? I've found a big part of onboarding is users seeing and trying the Daggerverse, but it's lacking the usual marketplace-style filters, ratings etc. Not a huge issue yet but as the number of modules grow being able to filter engine version, sort by rating etc will help a lot

Yes we plan to make all those improvements for sure. Constraint is engineering cycles, but we're on it 🙂

Most recent Daggerverse improvements:

• Better example system. You can now add an examples/ directory to your module, and Daggerverse will automatically render them as snippets in your module page
• Ongoing tweaks of the ranking system, hopefully you'll find that the "better" modules tend to be on top
• Just added support for all git servers, not just github. That's in parallel to 0.12 release that's about to drop
• Backoffice improvements to lay the foundation for things like delisting a module, etc

Coming soon:

• An actual standard library. We started the process of spinning out modules from our own CI (de facto reference implementation of Dagger), and eventually will promote that as a trusted and semi-stable standard library. Will also invite experienced Daggernauts like @wind peak, @kpenfound and others to contribute their personal modules into it. This should help with the "which one do I choose" problem

• More curation of Daggerverse modules, so that modules that are known by us to be trusted and good quality, will get boosted in search results

• 🤞 daggerverse access from the CLI. I personally would love a dagger search

It would also be great to be able to run private instances of the Daggerverse site with published private modules.

This would a great addition to internal- Development Portals and provide a friendlier first experience for developers when adopting Dagger.

Yes that is also planned!

First step is to actually support private modules, coming in the next couple weeks.
