Anyway, it’s all on GitHub - I’ll document the build procedure later. The software is still early days … But briefly the data source is a folder for each portal with one text file in it, and we can add logos and screenshots to each folder to.
For reference, here is what one of the text files of data looks like. Much easier to edit than CSV

Thank you @jarofgreen. My first impression is the views you provide are a great way to highlight some data quality issues in the dataset. I’ll explore some more…
@jarofgreenhttps://discuss.okfn.org/users/jarofgreen - very interesting,
thanks! Would be interested in checking out the code and understanding how
the data gets synced with the source of truth (the .csv on github)
Hello, It’s just been pointed out to me this site is now off-line. I had a hurried server move recently and this got lost. Sorry!
At the risk of being cheeky … Is there interest in using this to replace the current site? I seriously think this offers more features in being able to search and show the data more. Also, it’s data format of a simple text format instead of CSV makes editing data from a GitHub repo much clearer and easier.
If there is another PHP dev here who is interested, let me know - happy to chat and collaborate.
