Can we have description of tags when we hover over / click them?
With the re-tagging of the site proposal, new tags were introduced. I didn't know the meaning of those, so I hovered over them to see a short description just as I was / am used to doing in the Stack Exchange network, just to notice that this doesn't exist here yet.

Can we have short descriptions of tags when you hover over them / or click on them? (For the second suggestion, I want to stay on the same site and not be redirected to the specific tag's site.)

Behaviour as implemented on the Stack Exchange network:

![hovering tags produces a short description on the Stack Exchange network](https://meta.codidact.com/uploads/8sMz3CFjPe7vzYfHTgsXMNpw)

Behaviour here on Codidact (you can't see my mouse pointer but you can see that the tag is hovered as it's slightly darker than the others):
