Beschreibung

One question I get often from scientists transitioning from domain specific languages to Python is "How do I find Python packages that do what I currently do in NCL/MATLAB/IDL, etc?"

PyPI's classifier is one solution, but wouldn't it be nice to have something like CRAN task views: https://cran.r-project.org/web/views/ but for conda-forge? This new tool would provide some guidance which packages on conda-forge are relevant for tasks related to a certain topic.

Because conda-forge is language agnostic, this functionality could be extended to other packages other than the Python packages hosted by conda-forge.
