Agreed, but at least Python has a canonical 'Awesome X' list. There needs to be a way to take a package index and have the community categorize and review it.

Agreed, but at least Python has a canonical 'Awesome X' list. There needs to be a way to take a package index and have the community categorize and review it. To have a lifetime of more than a few months, it would need to connect the Pypi and Github API . Even better would be cross-language "ORM-> Django (Python), gorm (Go), Diesel (Rust)" with a way that lets each community hook their package APIs together, categorize the packages, and sort by stars or reviews. They all look similar, but it would need a lot of open source.
