Include youtube video tutorial content on codewind landing pages #796

Open AndyRWatson opened 5 years ago

AndyRWatson commented 5 years ago

Codewind version: 0.4 OS:** MacOS

Che version: IDE extension version: IDE version: Kubernetes cluster:

Description of the enhancement: We have a number of tutorial/step through videos on our youTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnKCVK6RFDyHFqUmXlAhCHQ/

Can we link/include these videos where appropriate in our landing page instructions to complement the landing page content as well as lead people to other content on our youTube channel.

Proposed solution:

integrate youTube videos / links onto our landing pages

Tagging @kimholmes for design and @travis1111 for website content.

travis1111 commented 5 years ago

I will work on it as soon as I receive the design from design team. Thanks!

kimholmes commented 5 years ago

@sishida @travis1111 Isn't this solved by the presence of the YouTube icon in the header? It links to the Codewind Youtube page that contains all of the videos.

AndyRWatson commented 5 years ago

I was thinking more around the tutorial videos specifically. For instance we have an install video for vscode/eclipse. That would be good to also link to / embed as a link from our installation landing page ?

e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qujVACLnbmM&list=PL19zPOxRy13p4Yx5H5DVLABQi-9vi6SLn&index=3&t=0s

@AndyRWatson Ok. I gotcha. I'd imagine these will also be surfaced from the Docs page. But yeah, I get wanting to give them a prominent spot on the landing page. Thanks

AndyRWatson commented 5 years ago

Thanks @kimholmes , your right maybe I should have referred to Docs pages. We are seeing good traffic to the Youtube overview video, presumably from the link on the landing page. We'd like to see if we can get more views on the other content too.

AndyRWatson commented 4 years ago

@kimholmes this came up on an advocacy call this week. By having the youtube link there is a click away from our website whilst imbedded video will keep people on codewind.dev. Any chance we might get something for 0.8 ?

This will be part of https://github.com/eclipse/codewind/issues/2594.

kimholmes commented 4 years ago

@AndyRWatson @jcockbain This issue refers to the main Codewind.dev landing page and not the Docs landing page in #2594 . Correct?

MelHopper commented 4 years ago

@andyrwatson are you able to confirm whether this github issue can be closed, given the new Content Landing Page, or whether this github issue refers to the main codewind.dev landing page? Many Thanks

AndyRWatson commented 4 years ago

@MelHopper So originally I had envisaged a link being on the same page as the content. So if we have instructions for remote install we'd also embed the video if available. Maybe this wasnt clear now in original issue descriptionwith our distinction between landing page and docs. If this is the case or its now part of a different design page then happy to consider closing.

jcockbain commented 4 years ago

If embedding a video link in the content is something ID + Docs think would be useful, I don't believe it would be a big job technically.

I'm adding a videos.yml with the PR for https://github.com/eclipse/codewind/issues/2594, which contains an embed link as one of its fields.

It would then be a case of attaching the desired video title in the metadata of the markdown file, and an embed wrapper for each of the content templates (blog/docs/guide etc..).

MelHopper commented 4 years ago

Thanks @AndyRWatson for your reply, and @jcockbain for scoping the work.

I've now added this github issue to the content strategy roadmap work item to add links to videos, blogs etc. from the website topics - work to 'add links to videos' modified to 'embed videos'.

This work is currently scheduled for 0.16.0 in the roadmap, but if you'd like to reprioritise Andy just give me a shout and we can definitely take a look

Hi, @AndyRWatson and @MelHopper, We now have a videos link on our Learn page: https://www.eclipse.org/codewind/learn.html

Is this issue good to close? Thank you! :)

Hi @sishida This issue is to do with embedding video into the getting started user stories, so within topics, as opposed to the overall videos shown on the content landing page. This is a different improvement to user experience than just giving general links on a landing page, so not ready to close. Cheers.
