Research direction

The work is on the EESSI software overview page, where a table lists builds per CPU target marked with X; the payload names no file, test or entry point. The issue is an open design question with no decision in the thread, so the first step is to agree with maintainers on a layout (separate table, per-CPU tables, or tooltips). Done would mean accelerator builds are listed on the page in whichever layout was agreed.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

We should also list the apps that are available for accelerators. I'm not sure what's the best way to do this, though.

I guess adding them to the existing table would make it way too big and unreadable, so maybe we can add them to a separate section/table. Maybe even a separate table for every CPU target, having the accelerator targets / compute capabilities as columns? All those tables would probably be very similar though...

Alternatively, it could perhaps be one table with tooltips or something showing the accelerator targets for a specific CPU target when you hover over / click on the X.
