Description

Right now adding related projects is very verbose (and not well documented); https://github.com/typelevel/sbt-typelevel/blob/2e825717aa73582cc5ac4e79021b9a479bec40c4/build.sbt#L223-L242

It would be nice if we had a setting key so we can do something like;

tlSiteRelatedProjects ++= Seq("http://example.com" -> "example")

Having the more powerful version available is nice, but doing the most common thing should be easy

Research direction

Start by reading the related-projects configuration in build.sbt around lines 223-242 and the surrounding issue discussion. Add a setting that supports the shown tlSiteRelatedProjects syntax while keeping the more powerful existing configuration available; done means the concise form works for common related-project links.
