Description

Apparently, the filtering functionality includes a text search in the project's description, which can lead to false positives:. For example, when selecting "I need... a class system", around 25% of the libraries are erroneously listed just because they have "class" somewhere on their description:

  • chronoman (Utility class to...)
  • decisiontrees (classifier tag)
  • jvent (Event Emitter Class ...)
  • Router.js (... Home js class ....)
  • Transparency.js (has to do with CSS class attributes)
  • mediahack.js (media-query classes to DOM nodes)
  • Mouse (... mouse as a first class citizen)
  • ClassIE (the name is a coincidence)
  • atom.js (smal class providing...)
  • Corner.js (CSS classes again)

I understand that this filter might be specially affected because "class" is such an overloaded word but I wonder if there isn't a way to make the filter more accurate.
