Description

Low-priority feature request: I gather that whoever creates the Packet downloads page has to manually enter the titles and links for downloadable items.

If we’re going to provide a separate download for each finalist, that means someone will have to manually enter ~120 titles and links.

So it might be nice to provide a way to import a set of titles and links for that page, from (say) a CSV or JSON file.

If this would take significant time/work to implement, it’s probably not worth it; just a minor convenience feature.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by locating the Packet downloads page implementation and the current path for entering downloadable-item titles and links. Before coding, clarify the supported import format and scope; done would mean the page can reliably populate those fields from the agreed CSV or JSON input.
