My idea would be a hyperlink to the item. Example: Once you click on Warhammer +2, it will either give you the original warhammer stats and then the +2 modifier, or even a link or hyperlink to the original warhammer so you don't have to go page to page looking for the exact dice you roll when somebody is using a warhammer.
I think that this could be improved upon. I really appreciate how easy it is to look through monsters and magic items. I would like to be able to view and search for weapons or other items the same way.
I did see this. But, I think basic items (equipment) should still be considered for this list. It is a quicker way to look up an armor type or base damage for a weapon. At least from an ease-of-use stand point. If I'm in a game and I need to look up leather armor, I'm clicking in ITEMS first and then grumbling as I then go to COMPENDIUM, and then EQUIPMENT, then ARMOR, you get the idea.
I agree that it would be nice to have a basic items/equipment/armor/tools tab alongside the Spells/Items/Monsters tabs. They actually already have the framework for it in the Equipment section of the Compendium. I think the only hesitation to do such would be the lack of consistent filters that you would be able to run in a grouping like that.

Under items it details magic items. What about regular non-magical items?
It's under https://www.dndbeyond.com/compendium/rules/basic-rules -> Equipment but I agree it should specify between basic and magic items.
Basic items can be found in the COMPENDIUM tab. The right hand side has all the equipment listed there.

It would be real easy to put this under the tab a weapon applies to:
