awesome-ada VS fpm

At the moment we have * Reddit, a news aggregator, Awesome Ada link list, and they work good too. (Thank involved people for this!) * Organization/company based sites, and they work good (e.g. adaic.org, ada-auth.org, sigada.org, adacore.com) * Chats, comp.lang.ada "news group" * Wiki books * Ada Programming (Is it updated?) * Ada Style Guide (It looks like to be never updated since uploading) * person-driven sites are often biassed, become outdated and abandoned * For example, adapower.com, getadanow.com, learnadanow.com are not updated (e.g. no Alire mention), have expired SSL certificate and dead links. (Sorry David, it's just for example!). * long(?) list of dead or frozen sites * adahome.com - alive, not updated * adaworld.com - has changed owner * planet.ada.wtf not resolved * ancient Public Ada Library (PAL) gone * per country community is mostly alive * adaspain.org is't responding

I too are partial to the Ada (the person) logos. The modern takes in the awesome-ada site are my favorite. In particular the previous one was very cool: https://github.com/ohenley/awesome-ada/tree/f0e3df247119dd3730c4bda6cac0e0c3fd93087c

All libraries listed in awesome-ada added to Alire.

In order to find good examples for Ada, I think we should add all our projects to the curated list of awesome Ada resources. OK, it won't be curated if we add everything, but in fact it's far from being crowded. It can be curated later if it overgrows. In my opinion, both these projects (Dashera and Yotroc) ought to be included, and they aren't.

Depends on the libs, see [Awesome Ada][https://github.com/ohenley/awesome-ada]

If it's not in Alire, second step is looking in the curated list of Ada projects (and then follow README or BUILDING instructions): https://github.com/ohenley/awesome-ada

There are still many interesting projects in https://github.com/ohenley/awesome-ada and other sources, which are not indexed by Alire, so there is room for improvement.

In terms of bootstrapping your environment and getting started, I'd recommend looking at Vim-Ada and Awesome Ada. I also tried to write up some practical advice from my experience, which might be helpful.

On Awesome Ada list, you can find examples of Ada usage outside embedded development.

If you ever revisit that decision, check out FPM. It can shave off a few of the rough edges related to packaging: https://github.com/jordansissel/fpm

The easiest way is probably FPM: https://fpm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

There is definitely a lot more to building a proper package for wider distribution, but there are some great tools out there for folks wanting to get into it that make it more approachable. I've done my fair share with fpm when learning how the proverbial sausage is made.

I use RedHat based environments for work. I've had good success creating my own yum repo and building RPM packages with Effing package management. FPM can handle packages for most distros so if you want to publish a linux app it is an easy way to provide it in multiple formats.
