Great start, I like what you have! Let's either pause this, or split it into two sub-branches.

The "interactive app" and "batch job" links need more care. We shouldn't dump an interested researcher at a page that doesn't tell them how to access and start using the specific software they came to find.

To split into two, checkout this branch on your local. Then make a new branch, but don't check it out yet. Then remove those URLs we don't have pages for. Then push that change to update this PR. Then push the other branch and make a new PR.

We're still holding this one until we know for sure what is happening with SAS Enterprise Guide. I have a meeting Monday to learn more.

Otherwise this is in great shape!
