Thanks for bringing this up. I agree that it should be more prominent. My
instinctual response is to change the text, add an icon, and bump the font size
up. Perhaps make it a /button link/ like “Tools that work with Org” on the
homepage. I’d be tempted to put it on the homepage, but I’m also wary of
clutter, and I’m hoping that the use of the common Git branch icon may clue devs
into thinking that the repository is linked/given on that page.

Do you have any thoughts on that?

All the best,
Timothy
