Automated list update tooling

[d2s]

Overview

Have been thinking that some kind of automated way to pull contents of Languages dropdown from listed GitHub Organizations would enable faster and easier updating of the list.

Small script that would search a DOM selector to get the text content from the dropdown element, and reformat it to a comma separated list. I know it is relatively easy to create, but just haven't had energy to build it.

Additionally, it would make sense to change the data format from Markdown text to a JSON file, as that would enable more re-usability for the data contents. Eleventy allows creating pages from JSON data, and as this project is using Eleventy, this would be a good use for that feature.

Reasoning

Better tools would enable keeping the list up-to-date, and make it a lot more easier to contribute to the repository.
