Definitely like the new look. The part which imho is worth discussing is the header content : Today we have (among which "Get Started" can - I think - be removed)
Use Cases
Use Cases
Solutions
User Feedback
Get Started --|
Technology |
Installing |= For this we could reply on the VPP sphinx
Building --|
Videos --> Move under "Use Cases" ?
Documentation
VPP documentation
CSIT documentation
HICN documentation
Other projects
The Latest
Latest news
Webinars
Whitepapers
Get Involved
Community
Technical Steering Commitee (TSC)
TSC Documentation
This maps to the proposed header :
Use Cases -- Resource -- Docs -- News -- Community -- Charter -- About
Resource
can be removed as Get started
previouslyCharter
: do we really need it here, can't it go under Community ?About
: not sure what this would point to Finally about the links in the middle of the page, I'd say :
Learn about VPP -> sphinx doc
See Use Cases -> Use Cases > Use Cases
Get the code -> VPP sphinx doc > download VPP page
View the docs -> VPP sphinx doc
Join the Project -> Get involved > Community
Maybe something more like this:
Use Cases
Use Cases

Other projects
The Latest -> Rename to News
Latest news -> Rename to Press
Webinars
Whitepapers
Blogs -> Optional new section when we get Blogs
Get Involved -> Rename to Community
Community -> This becomes the landing page for Community (_index.md)
Technical Steering Commitee (TSC)
TSC Documentation
So at top level we get
Use Cases --- Docs --- News -- Community
@sknat @nealtex01 Thoughts?
Looks good to me !
I'm totally ok with the above, but for sake of completeness, see the entirety of this deck.
By studying compatriot sites, and scoring what others did, I arrived at the longer nav:
I think the charts Ed sent earlier maybe didn't include all that background?
Anyway, we can clear it down at today fd.io noon call.
@nealtex01 I agree, you did a lot of good background there... I sort of jumped to your conclusions on the visual stuff... @sknat the deck @nealtex01 linked to is well worth the read :)
@edwarnicke for even the Nav you laid out, where would you say we are on the site copy/content front:
???
Definitely an interesting read to see the various design choices others have made !
I guess we can now close this issue. Let's re-open a new one with the evolution from the current new design
@nealtex01 has kindly commissioned some mock ups of a visual rework of the FD.io website:
