Adding new pages to the Zarr website w/ sitemap

[MSanKeys963]

Hi all. 👋🏻

Linking this from #78 (comment).

Recently I added an adopters page to our website (see #77). Taking it forward, I've got a few updates lined up for our homepage (https://zarr.dev/). They are as follows:

• Add a page for the community (see Add new community page and update blog description #78)
  • This page will link all the resources and links on how to join and engage with the Zarr community. Some of them are:
    • Add an anchor which will link to https://zarr.dev/community-calls
    • Add an anchor which will link to https://zarr.dev/blog
    • Add info about various social links of Zarr and how to get involved
  • Proposed URL: https://zarr.dev/community
• Add a page for Zarr office hours (see Add a new page for Zarr Office Hours #81)
  • Proposed URL: https://zarr.dev/office-hours/
• Add a page for the Zarr data catalogue
  • This page will add various public .zarr data available on the web. Some of them are:
    • NASA POWER: https://registry.opendata.aws/nasa-power/
    • MUR Sea Surface Temperature: https://registry.opendata.aws/mur/
    • CMIP6: https://console.cloud.google.com/marketplace/details/noaa-public/cmip6
    • IDR (OME-NGFF): https://idr.github.io/ome-ngff-samples/
  • Proposed URL: https://zarr.dev/data
• Add a page for research papers which mention/uses Zarr
  • Proposed URL: https://zarr.dev/publications
• Add a page for Zarr conventions
  • The community is creating interesting new conventions, and I'd like to list them on a webpage. Some of them are:
    • Anndata - https://anndata.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
    • BDZ: https://github.com/openssbd/bdz
    • OME-Zarr - https://github.com/ome/ome-zarr-py
    • GeoZarr - https://github.com/zarr-developers/geozarr-spec
    • NCZarr - https://docs.unidata.ucar.edu/nug/current/nczarr_head.html
  • Proposed URL: https://zarr.dev/conventions
• Add a page for Zarr Glossary
  • Multiple domains use Zarr in numerous ways, and they've identified new and unique terms for different files (.zarray, .zgroup, chunks, .zattrs) inside their Zarr datasets.
  • Proposed URL: https://zarr.dev/glossary
• Add a page for implementations (see Add page for Zarr implementations #85)
  • This will list the implementations of the Zarr SPEC in various programming languages, which will include library implementations and end-user software (suggestion by @normanrz)

Here's a rough illustration of the proposed idea above:

The current state of progress for this issue:

• /community - Add new community page and update blog description #78
• /office-hours - Add a new page for Zarr Office Hours #81
• /zeps - Add new community page and update blog description #78
• /blog - Add new community page and update blog description #78
• /community-calls - Add new community page and update blog description #78
• /implementations - Add page for Zarr implementations #85
• /specs - Add page for Zarr implementations #85
• /data - Add page for Zarr datasets #86
• /conventions - Add page for Zarr conventions #88
• /publications - Needs PR
• /glossary - Needs PR

Let me know what everyone thinks of it. Suggestions/thoughts are welcome. Thanks!

Can we get /zeps, /blog and any other subpages included?

Can we get /zeps, /blog and any other subpages included?

Under the /community, right?

[joshmoore]

Sorry, first I meant in the drawing so we're discussing everything and both of those sub-pages are under the top-level not under /community.

[MSanKeys963]

Sure, I've updated the description and the sitemap drawing.

[normanrz]

If you want you can add https://zarr.webknossos.org/ to the data page.

What about the specs? Will they also be part of this structure?

And, what about a page with a list of the library implementations and supporting end-user software?

Hi @normanrz.

If you want you can add https://zarr.webknossos.org/ to the data page.

For sure. The page looks great.

What about the specs? Will they also be part of this structure?

I can add a subpage (https://zarr.dev/specs) which would link to https://zarr-specs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/specs.html.

And, what about a page with a list of the library implementations and supporting end-user software?

I haven't thought about it, but this could be a nice addition. Thanks for bringing it up.
