The Community Plugins section in Ecosystem.md was a flat alphabetical list of 150+ plugins with no categorization, making it difficult for users to discover relevant plugins for their use case. This commit reorganizes the Community Plugins section into 15 logical subcategories: - Authentication & Authorization - Databases & Storage - Logging, Metrics & Monitoring - Messaging & Events - GraphQL & API Documentation - Server-Side Rendering & Frontend Integration - HTTP & Request Utilities - Validation & Serialization - Caching - Security - Session & Cookies - Routing & Plugin Management - Internationalization (i18n) - Testing & Development - Utilities & Miscellaneous All existing plugin links are preserved. The Core and Community Tools sections are unchanged. Closes fastify#3618

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I think this:
- breaks our current script: https://github.com/fastify/website/blob/main/scripts/build-plugin-list.js
- add an extra burden on us when checking the PR:
- which categories do we have?
- where does the plugin live?
- should I add a new category for my AI cool bot?
Please.. no
I think that we can transform this list into a table
the ordering is the same as it is RN, but we add a tags column and that's it.
