.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/community-project.yaml:50
community/community-projects.jsonstorestagsas a JSON array of strings, but the form currently asks for a comma-separated string. This increases the chance of inconsistent formatting (spaces, casing) and requires extra conversion when copying into the JSON file.
- type: input
id: tags
attributes:
label: Tags
description: Comma-separated tags describing the project (e.g. theme, language, or format).
placeholder: "python, buildings, tutorial"

Submitting a community project meant opening a blank issue or PR and hand-editing
community/community-projects.json. There was no guided path.Adds
.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/community-project.yaml, an issue form with fields matching thecommunity-projects.jsonentry schema:title,url,creator,creatorUrl(optional),release, andtags.Adds a centered call-to-action button above the fold in the README linking to the new template, styled with the OMF brand blue (
