Thanks for developing this project, it's a very interesting tool! I have a couple of wishlist items related to how neuron handles tags listing / exploring / linking in the generated webpages.

In my usecase I have a pile of daily notes, with a random assortment of topics in each one. I do make heavy use of nested hierarchical tagging in order to navigate and link them. Right now the webpages rendered by neuron are suboptimal to navigate because they are lacking a way to 1) automatically generate indexing pages for each tag, and 2) generate an overall listing of all known tags.
In short, it would be great to have something similar to dirtree for tags.

As a real example, let's say I have two notes which are tagged one as formal-methods/smt/cvc4 and the other as formal-methods/smt/z3.
I'd like to see the following set of webpages autogenerated:

  • formal-methods.html
  • formal-methods/smt.html
  • formal-methods/smt/cvc4.html
  • formal-methods/smt/z3.html

Strictly related, I'd like to have a tag-query syntax (or any other embeddable way) to produce a tree listing/index of known tags, linking each entry to the autogenerated pages above, like this:

+ [formal-methods](formal-methods.html) (2)
  + [smt](formal-methods/smt.html) (2)
    - [cvc4](formal-methods/smt/cvc4.html) (1)
    - [z3](formal-methods/smt/z3.html) (1)
