Refresh repository presentation and contribution metadata - #339
Merged
Conversation
Rewrite the project README around the current Wave compiler and language contract. Replace stale site paths and legacy badges with the renewed Wave logo, concise navigation, accurate wavec commands, supported target families, source-build guidance, and links to the Vex and Whale ecosystem. Apply the Synth Wave #6654F1 signature color to the reduced build, release, and sponsorship badge set. Expand project funding visibility with monthly OpenCollective tiers, one-time supporter recognition, direct GitHub Sponsors and OpenCollective links, and an automatically updated supporter-avatar SVG. Replace the outdated Markdown issue templates with structured forms that collect compiler version, host, target triple, reproduction details, compatibility impact, and performance measurements. Add issue routing and a pull request checklist covering DCO, tests, documentation, target impact, and the compiler/std license boundary. Remove the unreferenced legacy code example, Doom demonstration GIF, and scalability SVG assets so the repository front page and GitHub metadata reflect the maintained documentation instead of obsolete artifacts.

Remove the manually maintained OpenCollective tier table and hard-coded supporter names from the README. Render the OpenCollective sponsors and backers SVG feeds instead so public supporter avatars update automatically when contributions change. Route every README sponsorship link and the Synth Wave sponsor badge directly to OpenCollective, with no GitHub Sponsors destination or duplicated funding source.

Summary
#6654F1signature color consistentlyWhy
The repository front page still contained broken or obsolete website paths, outdated CLI examples, old branding, and a large OpenCollective banner that did not expose the current supporter structure. The
.githubdirectory also retained unreferenced presentation assets and issue templates that did not collect target triples or other information needed for compiler reports.This refresh makes the repository useful to first-time visitors while keeping the technical claims tied to the current
waveccapability contract. Sponsorship paths now cover recurring and one-time support through OpenCollective, and public supporter avatars update automatically without a hard-coded tier or supporter list.Impact
This PR changes documentation and GitHub repository metadata only. It does not modify the Wave compiler, frontend, LLVM backend, standard library, tests, or workflows.
