Tags support for docs

[ianchov]

Hi,

Great theme. Will you add tag support for docs?

Thanks

Thanks for the suggestion. Tags are planned for Hextra's future roadmap. Could you elaborate on how you envision using tags in docs, perhaps with examples?

[ianchov]

Hey thanks for the fast response. I want to use tags in a book type content (aka docs structure)

I'm going to add specific kind of tags support: A way to automatically link docs pages to relevant blog posts:

1. I'll set tags in docs via cascade in the Hugo config.
2. In blog posts, I'll manually add tags when I write them.
3. My template coding will use the .Related function in docs to link to these blog posts with matching tags.

Sure. I have docs hierarchies for different programming languages. I create these pages with a headless CMS. So, instead of changing the markdown documents, I could do this:

cascade:
- _target:
    path: "python/**"
  tags:
  - python

(Now that I write that out, I dislike how redundant it is. Hugo might have some way match slug and tag. Or maybe I would change my CMS to output tags in the frontmatter.)
