Package cheatsheet with thumbnail plots or an example gallery #437
Description
Summary
Currently, the bayesplot "Functions" overview provides only a structured list of function links. For better user orientation it would be helpful to provide something like a one-page cheatsheet or an example gallery that shows the functions with small rendered example plots. See for example how ArviZ handels this: https://python.arviz.org/projects/plots/en/latest/gallery/index.html.
In this context, it would also be helpful to get help in the documentation for specific plotting functions, without being forwarded to a documentation page that provides help for the entire "function family" (see for example https://mc-stan.org/bayesplot/reference/PPC-errors.html).

For example, an updated version of:
https://rstudio.github.io/cheatsheets/bayesplot.pdf
which @roualdes created in 2020?

Here's the repository for that work: https://github.com/roualdes/stan_cheatsheets
That was some time ago, so it may no longer be a reasonable way to make such a cheatsheet.

Thank you @roualdes for linking the repository!

What if we use a pkgdown article with some javascript for filtering/searching by plot family ?
