Sort package registry by "Published" by default
Problem
By default the sort of the Package Registry is by name. Screen recording of default sort.
We know from past research that customers are visiting the registry to check that the package published, check which package to use, or troubleshoot. For all use cases, having packages that are active at the top of the list is the most helpful.
Proposal
The most helpful sort attribute is Published
as it's most likely to result in active packages being at the top of the list. In addition, if someone has used the registry UI before, they likely have already used their preferred sorting method. So, the default sort should:
- If the user has never navigated to the package registry, sort by published, descending, by default.
- If the user has navigated to the package registry, sort by last choice user sorted by. (Note this will only work if the user is using the same browser)
