[Feature Request] Tag support for project layout

[swebra]

I'm wondering about the possibility of simple tag support for the project layout, in the same vein as the functionality on posts; a simple addition in the front matter which links to a project view restricted to the same tags.

To be clear, this functionality exists already using multiple collections with multiple project pages, but none are as easy and streamlined as the tag system. Ideally I would like to be be able to keep all projects in the _projects folder and then just add tags to the front matter in addition to the one-time file creation in _featured_tags.

This could also provide a framework for implementing shared tag pages, where both projects and posts belonging to the same tag could be displayed.

I agree that this would be useful but I currently don't have capacity to implement this.

I've decided against implementing this, since it's already possible to do virtually the same by using Jekyll collections. Those familiar with Jekyll should be able to figure this out via the Jekyll docs and reading Hydejack's source (specifically the projects layout). Everyone else will have to wait until I get around to write documentation for this, sorry.

Keeping this issue open until I write documentation.

The docs in v9 have been updated with instructions to add multiple projects collections .
