If the project have an option like tag and description, apart from the name, it could help to make a better project manager and use external tools for other type of project management.

Also if using versioning tools, will be possible to have different description and/or tags for each branch.

I'm not talking about a readme but something short, more like the asset lib project descriptions (but shorter) and categories.

ps: I don't know if this issue exists because is really hard to find something with "project" and "description" 😅

If we add a tag system, we should probably restrict the characters that can be used for consistency across projects (similar to GitHub topics). For instance, only lowercase characters, numbers and underscores could be allowed.

This makes it more likely that tags added on projects by different people will match, making the project search and categorization more efficient.

@Calinou sounds good, the only problem is for languages that do not use ascii characters, maybe let the user choose from an editable list of tags?

The description is displayed as a tooltip when hovering the project
in the Project Manager. It can span multiple lines.

This partially addresses godotengine#8167.

Should probably be closed in favor of godotengine/godot-proposals#2329

I still think that text tags are more useful but since there is no interest in this I will close it.
A better proposal can be made by somebody else.
