Notes
  • Alphabetic sorter: I brought this up before and I know it was set to the side so as not to delay the launch. It would be great to be able to pick a letter and have it narrow the list of software to a list that begins with that letter.
  • More items per page. The current setup only displays 12 items per page, which results in a great number of pages that have to be scrolled through to find software in the middle sections. Currently, to browse the software openly, one can only go one page forward or backward using the numbers at the bottom, and there is no option to skip ahead multiple pages. This can be quite slow having to load each page in order to click the number to go to the next page. The search is working fine and the categories we have right now are somewhat useful, but these are generally more useful for those who already know what they are looking for. For those just looking to browse the available software, though, it would be great to have a more efficient ways to see more options by having more options per page, and perhaps having the ability 
  • Additionally, putting software options in a top to bottom column (or maybe two columns) may be easier to read, if we have more options on the page (perhaps in smaller font?).
  • The mysterious "1"s in the Software Description of many of the software pages, like this: https://msi.umn.edu/our-resources/msi-software/abyss. Perhaps we mentioned this, but throwing it on the list here in case we didn't
