Good lightweight candidate for a grid component to re-use: http://js-grid.com/ |

@gidili I am interested in the issue. How do I start? |

Hi @souravsingh! @cheelee is taking a stab at this and you can follow changes on this PR currently under review. A good way to start getting involved is to clone the openworm website repo and explore the repositories page code so once you are familiar with that you can help us with new features and improvements. About this particular issue, @cheelee do you have any suggestions for @souravsingh of outstanding items on this task he can help with? |

@gidili @souravsingh Sure thing! We're currently working on two independent views of the same data. They appear in different tabs (Tabbed View, and Grid View.) The one of key interest now is Grid View - we're using jsGrid (http://js-grid.com/) to layout each repo's metadata as a row. This is only the initial view - ideally this is what we're (more or less) gunning for: A nested row display for grids where - each row represents the master repo for a subgroup, and if the subgroup has other child repos, the row will also contain additional rows. We could arrange for a time to discuss this on Gitter or a Hangout if that helps. |

I am taking this up. |

can i work on this issue because i am new to this |
We have a view of the metadata available for openworm repos deployed live here, driven by this code here.
At the moment metadata is shown in tabs, courtesy of @cheelee.
We'd like to add an alternate tabular view (possibly re-using some javascript/jquery grid) to show metadata and that's what this issue is about.
There should be also a toggle to switch from the tabbed view to the tabular view.
The reason to add the tabular view is so that we can see metadata for the various repos at a glance, so that people can quickly access documentation etc.
