It would be useful to add some seed resources to populate the YAML file a bit. Some examples include

• Raspberry Pi Website
• Microbit Website
• Codecademy
• Codeanywhere
• Khan Academy
• TED
• Code
• YouTube (break down by channel)

Some ideas here: https://freelearninglist.org/

As the repository of resources grows it becomes more and more important to provide sophisticated search functionality.
The key to this is high quality and relevant metadata, and the ideal is that metadata tags are provided by the people who are familiar with the content (rather than bots).
We need to prompt people when they are uploading resources - ensure that they enter key data using terms from a library. We therefore need to identify key classification criteria up front.

This issue is to instigate discussion of the need for a controlled vocab and key fields, to be presented to end users when they upload content.
The issue will be closed when a strategy for dealing with this is in place.
