Discussion: Make onboarding easier with index.html in rotonde-client #117

Closed 0x0ade closed 7 years ago

0x0ade commented 7 years ago

Moving over the post-merge discussion from #116

@neauoire:

I was thinking about adding an index.html page to the client repo with on boarding instructions, what do you think?

⁣

@0x0ade:

I welcome a index.html page with on boarding instructions... but I'm wondering: Is it possible to modify the DatArchive created by DatArchive.fork(url)? If so, we could just create a "create portal" button

⁣

@webdesserts:

I already made something like this (doesn't modify the svg atm). Got caught up with work and never announced it: dat://af5ef11cdb370a641bf9a95854b74f42bf445e84969c05968f5385f7cde7487d/

I'll work on adding an svg upload today.

webdesserts commented 7 years ago

Published the git repository. I'll make modifications there for now. If y'all want to pull it into the Rotonde org, feel free to fork/re-publish etc. I did want to eventually combine this with louis' guide in some way.

webdesserts commented 7 years ago

Ok, the site now has a default svg to replace @neauoire's whenever you create the portal and also allows you to upload your own. One thought is that this could also be re-purposed to "update" someone's information later. Use DatArchive.selectArchive(), read in the portal.json, allow them to edit and then save back to the site. This would allow us to offload the bulk of the "settings" ui & logic to an exterior site.

webdesserts commented 7 years ago

ohh! You could skip DatArchive.selectArchive() if we do something like

<a href="dat://rotonde-settings.hashbase.io?dat%3A%2F%2F2f21e3c122ef0f2555d3a99497710cd875c7b0383f998a2d37c02c042d598485%2F">Preferences</a>

or even just use document.referrer

Added to Rotonde org!

neauoire commented 7 years ago

Could we actually merge this with the client? And have this run as the index.html?

webdesserts commented 7 years ago

@neauoire Sure, I'd be up for workin' on that this weekend if y'all want me to.

neauoire commented 7 years ago

I'm available too! If you migrate it on the main repo as a PR, I might tweak the design a bit :) I'll also put in the default icon.

webdesserts commented 7 years ago

@neauoire Mmmmk. Sounds good to me.

webdesserts commented 7 years ago

I've opened a PR here: #123

neauoire commented 7 years ago

That's pretty much solid, closing.
