On section and subcategory pages, every row repeated its use case and current page as tags (and as the label under the name on phones), right under a heading that already said the same thing. They are now hidden in editorial order and shown again when a column sort flattens the groups.

Clicking a category or group tag filtered the homepage table in place while rewriting the address bar to the category URL, so one URL rendered two different pages and readers never reached category pages with their intros and guides; category pages also showed a redundant self-referential filter bar.

Category pages sorted rows by downloads, which buried editorial leads (the Django ORM showed as row 7 of 7, tkinter as 14 of 14) against CONTRIBUTING.md's "position is the marker"; the full intro in the hero pushed the table 2.5 screens down on a phone; and every page repeated the same "Search every project in one place" H2.

Every entry description row carried aria-hidden="true", hiding descriptions that sighted readers can see from screen readers.

Category pages carried no text of their own beyond the README one-line description, and most meta descriptions fell back to a generic "Explore N curated Python projects" line, which correlated with weak search rankings for category queries. This adds optional per-category intro markdown files rendered under the H1, with the first paragraph used as the meta description and links opening in a new tab, starting with the ORM category.

azure-sdk-for-python and google-cloud-python were rendering "Not on
PyPI", which is misleading. Both do ship on PyPI, just as many
per-service packages (azure-identity, azure-storage-blob,
google-cloud-storage, etc.) rather than under the repo name.
pypi_name_overrides.json already recorded that distinction in its
reason field; those two entries now carry an optional "badge" value
that build.py reads into the PyPI Downloads column. The other sixteen
no-count entries (cpython, renpy, agent skill repos, etc.) keep
"Not on PyPI" since that remains accurate for them.

django.db.models, geodjango, httpx.URL and uv audit were rendering
"Not on PyPI" alongside eighteen genuinely standalone projects that
simply are not packaged on PyPI, conflating two different reasons for
a missing download count.
These four entries now carry a "(part of X)" description prefix in
README.md, mirroring the existing "(Python standard library)"
convention. build.py reads that prefix into a bundled flag that both
templates render as a "Bundled" badge.
The prefix approach was chosen over a separate data file so README.md
stays the single source of content truth, and over inferring from the
entry name because geodjango is neither dotted nor spaced and would
have been missed. Redundant tail wording was trimmed from the
httpx.URL, geodjango and uv audit descriptions now that the prefix
names the parent.
The new entry format is documented in CONTRIBUTING.md and the
vocabulary in CONTEXT.md.

Standard-library entries rendered "Not on PyPI" in the PyPI Downloads
column, which read like missing data rather than a deliberate category
— the build already forces downloads to None for them so they never
pick up a same-named PyPI backport. They now render a "Stdlib" badge
instead, while genuine non-PyPI entries keep "Not on PyPI".
The filter tag is renamed to match, so the source-type value, the row
filter tag, and the synthetic category heading all read Stdlib now.
The literal "Built-in" strings scattered through build.py are routed
through the existing BUILTIN_FILTER constant so the label lives in one
place. The category page slug stays "built-in" so the public URL
/categories/built-in/ does not break.

Replaces the em dash in the PyPI Downloads column with a source-badge
pill labeled "Not on PyPI", reusing the existing badge style used by
the stars column for visual consistency. Sorting is unaffected since
non-numeric cells already parse as missing.

Downloads is now the default sort, so it sits directly after the
project name in both the index and category table templates. The
source-type badge stays in the stars cell.

Sourced from website/data/pypi_downloads.tsv the same way
github_stars.json feeds the stars column. The new sortable column
sits between GitHub Stars and Last Commit on the homepage and
category pages, formatted with thousands separators like stars, with
an em dash when no PyPI data exists. Rows are matched by normalized
README display name; Built-in entries never show counts since
same-named PyPI packages are stdlib backports (e.g. the asyncio
package).
Below 960px the column hides and the count moves into the expand
row, mirroring the existing Last Commit treatment. main.js gains the
downloads sort branch and URL param.
The deploy workflow fetches the TSV via the new
make fetch_pypi_downloads target with a daily actions/cache
fallback, mirroring the stars fetch, but non-fatal: the column
degrades to dashes when the fetch fails, unlike stars which the
build requires.

Convert <button> tags for subcategory, group, and source filters to <a>
elements with href attributes so browsers surface URL preview on hover,
support open-in-new-tab, and allow middle-click navigation.

- Extract render_category() helper to deduplicate the three category/group/builtin
rendering blocks in build.py
- Replace synthetic dict literals with synthetic_category() helper
- Rewrite subcategory rendering to avoid O(n²) loop using precomputed dicts
- Pass filter_urls (not just JSON) to templates so Jinja can look up group URLs
directly instead of applying the slugify filter at render time
- Remove slugify from env.filters (no longer used in templates)
- Replace isIndexPage() wrapper with isIndexDocument constant in main.js
- Fix: call applyFilters() on page load when activeFilter is set
- Remove dead else branch in tag click handler (category pages with no URL)
- Switch .hero-category-links from CSS columns to CSS grid for more even layout
- Remove max-width cap on .category-subtitle

Register Built-in as a navigable filter path alongside regular category
and group slugs, emit the page during build, add it to the sitemap, and
wire the Built-in tag buttons in index.html and category.html to navigate
there via data-url.

Add search input, filter chips, no-results block, and back-to-top
button to category/group/subcategory pages. Pass filter_urls_json to
all page types so tag-chip navigation works site-wide. Fix JS so
filter-clear and no-results-clear redirect to / on non-index pages
instead of trying to filter a non-existent local table. Remove the
now-redundant .category-results CSS overrides.

Removes inline .category-row-desc from the name cell and renders
entry.description inside .expand-content instead, matching the
index page pattern. Drops the now-unused CSS rules for
.category-row-desc and the overridden .category-table .expand-content
padding.

The category template rendered a tag for `category.name` plus a tag for
`entry.groups[0]`, which duplicated the group name on group pages where
those values are identical (e.g. /categories/python-language/ showing
"Python Language" twice). It also never rendered `entry.categories`, so
group pages omitted each project's actual category.
Mirror the index template's tag rendering on category, group, and
subcategory pages, and mark whichever tag matches the current page URL
as active. Pass `category_urls` and `current_path` to each render call
so the template can match by URL.
