Description

Rather than one line per package, consider a few lines similar to the package manager in visual studio displaying the icon title and short description. This makes for a much more browsable experience so i can just gloss over the list and then click on things that look interesting. As it is now, I'd have to click on each item to really understand what the package is offering.

Research direction

Start by locating the package grid or list entry point and inspect how each package row is currently rendered. Compare the existing view with the Visual Studio package manager experience; done means each row presents an icon, title, and short description so users can browse packages without opening them.
