Info menu: clicking the publisher name should show packages from that publisher #219

For example, if you search https://winget.run/search?query=WingetUI on winget.run and then click Martí Climent it's possible to see all your apps.

Currently on WingetUI it's possible to do something similar, but it's a little bit more difficult: you have to copy "SomePythonThings." and paste it on the search bar.

So, I believe it would be easier if I could just click the publisher's name instead of doing the above:

You mean like directly searching for the name in the search box, right?

Yes, something like this. Ideally the publisher's name would work as a hyperlink that closes the info menu and searches that name on WingetUI, so the user would be able to instantly see all the packages from that publisher by simply clicking its name. However, I think this would only work on Winget as publishers' information seems absent in Scoop

didn't thought about that...

The downside of my idea is that the user would see "SomePythonThings." in the search bar, instead of Martí Climent, so maybe there is room for improvement

Well, that's my case cause I'm dumb and wrote a random ID.

Normal software publishers use their own name in their IDs.

P. D. I'm trying to change this and have the ID be MartiCliment.WingetUI

LMAO. I've also done this with my first e-mail... Good luck!

I've found another one: "brrd.abricotine".

Anyway, how about creating an alias for the publisher's id?

Like making "Publisher: Thomas Brouard" display the same search reasult as "brrd."?

Yes, I think this makes sense

Done!
