Function reference organization in pkgdown website #2176

Open olivroy opened 1 year ago

olivroy commented 1 year ago

Hello,

I am learning the sf package, and browsed through the referene https://r-spatial.github.io/sf/reference/index.html I find it a bit difficult to browse, and to know which functions fit together (apart from the ones documented together.

Would it be possible to improve _pkgdown.yml? by grouping functions and add small description in the function index

See at https://github.com/tidyverse/dplyr/blob/main/_pkgdown.yml and what the result is https://dplyr.tidyverse.org/reference/index.html

Thanks for the great package

BTW: In the cheatsheet the functions are grouped into 6 groups, maybe it will be useful: https://github.com/rstudio/cheatsheets/blob/main/sf.pdf

Another grouping is found in table 1 of https://journal.r-project.org/archive/2018/RJ-2018-009/RJ-2018-009.pdf
