Right now the /resources page shows us something like this

Some of these are kind of "crypting", for example java/generics and java/class. These items don't really describe the content but they're like this because that's the file names.

Would it be better to show the article titles instead?

Possibly, but that would also mean showing the titles in the sidebar as well

I think it would also help to structure it like a file directory. Seeing things like

promises/async await
promises/intro
promises/simplifying promises

is redundant. It could instead be

promises
   async await
   intro
   simplifying promises

and that would also give more room to supply the article names without having a massively long line.

Wouldn't it be better to do it with titles everywhere anyway? That's what it showed on the Figma sheet iirc

according to this

promises
   async await
   intro
   simplifying promises

I tried it, it seems good before you try it. Most subcategories have 1 or 2 articles, it becomes really really hard to scan, this is why I did it the way it currently is.

So no, I don't think we should do this.


About titles over filenames, yes, I think titles is a better approach than using the file name, and being consistent on usage (sidebar, list of resources, related resources).

PR appreciated.
