Redesigning cables.gl landing page

[kikohs]

Starting the discussion about the cables.gl website which could be improved.

Positioning statement / mission statement.

ex: Webflow empowers designers to build professional, custom websites in a completely visual canvas with no code. ex: Notion: All-in-one workspace. One tool for your whole team. Write, plan, and get organized.

Who is cables for? artists, developers, citizens, makers? What do we offer them? How you offer it? Why you do what you do? How this compares to what's already out there?

Cables strengths rely on the web and its shareable / collaborative nature.

ex: Cables is no-code platform for interactive 3D graphics, data visualization and creative AI applications on the web

Design structure

• Tagline, with embedded patch
• Positioning statement

Where to get some help?

To work on the design, it could be a great idea to find talented students /enthusiasts who are looking to make a difference on their portfolio. One idea would be to send a form to the community asking for their help and opinions on various design choices.

Would be great to launch Cables 1.0 with this new design and start promoting heavily on social media.

I'd be happy to push this with the UI/UX or even Design Lead or Digital Media classes at Hyper Island :-) they could do it as a main assignment for one of their modules.

They could have Cables as a client, and maybe work it out with Hyper Island in return for some workshops/mentoring.
