Website refactoring

[fiendskrah]

Brainstorming features to add/upgrade to pysal.org

More dynamic carousel (#205)

• arrows are invisible, auto-rotation is too slow
• should include
  • recent items from pysal.org/news
  • examples from the package pages
  • recent publications that cite PySAL
    • google scholar notifications
    • could be a standing item at PySAL dev meetings
• Aside from the logo, items should be different each time someone loads the website e.g.
  • one package example, one news item, one recent publication that cites PySAL
  • each of the above items falls into a category - could have different buckets of categories that the carousel pulls from

Inconsistent paging for some packages

One goal of the refactor is to structure these pages more consistently. Some packages lead to a pysal.org html page, while others go to a github repository or a 404. The list of packages that do not direct to an internal page are:

• momenpy goes to external site
• pointpats goes to external 404
• mgwr goes to external site
• spglm goes to github repository
• spint goes to github repository
• spreg only has a video
• spvcm goes to github repository
• legendgram goes to github repository

Where should installation be?

Currently, installation page is nested inside documentation in the menu bar. We discussed shifting it to an individual item in the menu bar to make it more discoverable.
