Swap Readme with Userguide for Mobile View #102

Open qwo opened 10 years ago

qwo commented 10 years ago

First image is link to the readme at
https://github.com/c4hrva/hrt-bus-finder/blob/gh-pages/README.md

Second is the Wiki page on the wiki section to the user guide https://github.com/c4hrva/hrt-bus-finder/wiki/User-Guide

I suggest swapping the contents because usability wise the github wikipages are not mobile optimized. I could not find a way to get it to display native.

The readme is automatically mobile and optimized making it more readable.

I think this will 1 make it more usable 2. encourage people to notice the source code is on github. .

Maybe use Bootstrap Tour to show a step-through gui on first visit? http://bootstraptour.com/

adding bootstrap tour as the option when selecting userguide could be a good compromise.

Looks like a good fix for hacknight tonight

So yeah. I started adding bootstrap tour but when I tested it on my device and older devices.

its still running Javascript on phone devices.

The modal responses took over 5 seconds and were very clunky. It runs like a dream on desktop clients.

A better fix by @cosmicmeow was to make it another bootstrap page, not a github page and I'll add that
