It would be great if you could include some label to differentiate packages that are on CRAN and those that are hosted just in Github.

Packages submitted to CRAN demonstrates commitment in maintaining properly a package.
A Github repo could be more like a proof of concept or a project that the owner doesn't really wants maintain too much.

Idea taken from htmlwidgets gallery http://hafen.github.io/htmlwidgetsgallery/

That is a great idea. I was not aware of Hafen's htmlwidgets gallery. It makes searching for packages by certain criteria so easy. I going to do something similar for extensions. cc @thomasp85 . Maybe add another tab for "interactive search".

Indeed a great idea. I would add that packages on Bioconductor should be featured equally prominent as the requirements for Bioconductor packages are even greater
