Adds the content expansion that PR #9 (hygiene and CI) deferred, and reorders the list so it reads roughly top-down by how someone encounters Coder: what it is, the platform components, how to define environments, how to connect to and operate them, then external content.

New sections

  • Platform and Tools: coder/coder, coder/registry, coder/code-server, coder/envbuilder, coder/envbox, coder/preview.
  • AI Coding Agents: AI Coder documentation, Coder Agents, Tasks.
  • Modules: pointer to registry.coder.com/modules.
  • Terraform Providers: coder/terraform-provider-coder and coder/terraform-provider-coderd.
  • Coder Desktop: coder/coder-desktop-macos, coder/coder-desktop-windows.

Existing sections

  • Official Resources: adds Mastodon, YouTube, and the [Dev]olution Podcast.
  • IDEs renamed to IDE Integrations; adds coder/vscode-coder, coder/jetbrains-coder, coder/coder-jetbrains-toolbox.
  • Templates: flattened into a single alphabetized list with a short intro that points to the Coder Registry first. Descriptions for sharkymark/v2-templates, matifali/coder-templates, and uwu/basic-env were tightened. 8Bitz0/coder-rust-template was dropped.
  • Automation: adds coder/box.
  • Tutorials and Blog Posts: adds six Coder posts on Kubernetes namespaces as dev environments, four reference architectures for CDEs, the Well-Architected Framework, enterprise security and governance, deploying AI agents at scale, and the OpenClaw/Rabbit R1 build.

Section order is now: Official Resources, Platform and Tools, AI Coding Agents, Templates, Modules, Terraform Providers, IDE Integrations, Coder Desktop, Automation, Tutorials and Blog Posts, Talks and Videos.

Other

.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/1-suggest-resource.yaml: Suggested section dropdown updated to match the new structure.

Follow-up with Marketing for additional talks, posts, and videos will land separately.


This change was prepared by Coder Agents.

Add new sections for first-party Coder projects that exist now but
were not represented in the README, and restructure Templates to put
the Coder Registry front and center.

New sections:
- Platform and Tools: coder/coder, coder/registry, coder/code-server,
  coder/envbuilder, coder/envbox, coder/preview.
- IDE Integrations: coder/vscode-coder, coder/jetbrains-coder,
  coder/coder-jetbrains-toolbox, plus the existing Workspace access
  docs link and the private VS Code Marketplace blog post.
- Coder Desktop: coder/coder-desktop-macos, coder/coder-desktop-windows.
- AI Coding Agents: coder/agentapi, the AI Coder docs, and Tasks.
- Modules: pointer to registry.coder.com/modules.
- Terraform Providers: coder/terraform-provider-coder (template-side
  resources) and coder/terraform-provider-coderd (deployment
  management).

Templates restructured into 'On the Registry' and 'Not on the
Registry' sub-sections. The curated third-party list is preserved and
alphabetized by owner.

Issue template:
- Add the new sections to the 'Suggested section' dropdown in
  1-suggest-resource.yaml.

Verified locally with prettier, awesome-lint, typos, and linkspector.
Linkspector now sees 61 URLs (up from 39), 0 failed, 0 archived.
