Improve Drasil Website #3039
Comments
Other parts of the Wiki that we may want to consider adding information from (or linking directly to the Wiki page - we should have at least one link to the main Wiki page):
I don't think that this (along with the points in the opening comments) would be too much information to add to the website, but I'm reluctant to add more on a single page. |
Sounds good @peter-michalski. |
Below is a WIP proposed structure for the webpage: Introduction - new introduction
Getting Started
About - former Introduction
Generated Examples Case Studies Haddock Documentation Analysis of Drasil Academic terminology should be clarified as needed |
Great start to the outline @peter-michalski. Thank you for driving this forward. I have a few quick notes:
|
Good point @smiths . I have applied your notes to the outline comment. |
For the sake of avoiding duplication of information, I have chosen to mostly add links on this page to the relevant GitHub wiki pages. Consequently, it may be appropriate to review and edit the current quick start page on GitHub. |
7020a82 contains the updated website code |
I don't really want to close this issue quite yet, it has too much valuable information on it. Maybe when we're done with #3067 (as an issue, not as a task), we can also close this? |
Although issue #1599 can be closed because the feedback from when that issue was created has been addressed, a discussion of the website during meeting #3038 highlighted that a more thorough review of the Drasil website is in order. Therefore, I've created this issue.
To start with, we need to identify the audience for our website and the purpose that it serves. In the short term the website is principally for students that are joining the Drasil project. In the future, we hope to attract developers at other institutions that can contribute to developing Drasil. Although not ready yet, we also hope to attract users of Drasil. That is, people that will use Drasil in their scientific/engineering projects, without necessarily trying to expand the functionality of Drasil.
For the future goals (attracting developers and users), we need to make sure that the website quickly conveys the purpose and benefits of Drasil. We need to "sell" Drasil.
Some specific ideas/steps, as captured by @peter-michalski include the following:
@balacij and @cd155, please edit the above to clarify any of the points and to add any points that @peter-michalski and I may have missed from our conversation.
