Plugin browser improvement ideas

The Adapt plugin browser  lists all plugins that have been shared within the open source community. You may have noticed that there is a download counter that is attached for each plugin. This counter is only incremented whenever a plugin is downloaded by using the Adapt-cli. The popularity of this tool is unknown but it seems unlikely to be a high percentage meaning that the total downloads advertised is much lower than it would be in reality. This is problematic as an Adapt user may see a plugin with a low download count and assume that the plugin isn’t working or is unstable.

We’re looking for possible improvements either on how to order plugins in the plugin browser or to reduce false information. If you have any ideas of how we should list plugins. Please join the discussion here: https://github.com/adaptlearning/adapt-cli/issues/86
