Blog post to showcase community-authored Swift Macros #331

We've already seen some fantastic ideas by folks in the Swift community coming up with their own Swift macros. It would be neat to post a blog post that showcases macros folks have come up with and their associated packages. This probably is best done after 5.9 is released and there is an official release of the tools that support macros.

As part of authoring such a blog post, we could solicit the community to provide their examples. Once we have enough, we could publish the blog article.

There are some good examples being collated by the community in this repository.

We’re also working on a feature for the Swift Package Index to filter packages by whether they include macro targets. It’s not merged yet (and we’ll need to re-analyse all packages after it goes live), but we might be able to help with discovery in a week or two if that’s not too late.

That all sounds great. I didn’t have a timetable in mind. I just thought this would be a neat thing to do once there was a good amount of content to showcase.
