I almost missed this. Big fan of RiotJS. Might want to add the #riotjs tag

Thanks Jon! I just added the #riot tag ;)
I'm a big fan too, and I plan to write more about creating advanced apps. Riot is underrated and lacking of communication/visibility.

Although there does seem to be a maintained #riot tag, it appears all/most posts relating to it are under #riotjs. Maybe you should switch to that? Your post with the #riot tag appears to be the only one.

Also, could the dev team sort it out so #riotjs is the main tag for RiotJS? @michaeltharrington

Thanks so much for the call out, Jon!

We do indeed have some features to help us with this. There's a DEV feature called tag aliasing, where we can join two tags together, making one of the tags the main tag.

For instance, we've aliased #js to #javascript, which resulted in 2 things:

  1. If you add #js to a post, we automatically files the post under #javascript instead
  2. If you try to navigate to the tag landing page for #js (dev.to/t/js), you're going to be redirected to #javascript (dev.to/t/javascript)

Like you pointed out, most folks have congregated under #riotjs so I think it does make sense to alias #riot to #riotjs. Good suggestion! I'll also be in touch with the mod of #riot to let them know about this adjustment.
