Ideas for New User Onboarding #18

Open andyl opened 1 month ago

andyl commented 1 month ago

Coming back to Tableau after a few months, here are some ideas for the generator. The basic idea is to streamline new-user onboarding when they generate a new site.

  1. Generate working examples of Tableau features: _posts, _pages, _data, RSS, etc. under the theory that it's easier to delete functionality from a scaffold than add it to a blank-slate.
  2. The generated pages should have light documentation (written in markdown) on how to customize and extend the new site.
  3. Include a simple sidebar layout (maybe for documentation)
  4. Include function-components for generating menus and menu links.

Probably would be nice to have a basic styling - that's not my forte.

Just putting this out there for feedback. If this is interesting I can start to submit PRs and/or collaborate with others. WDYT?

Sounds great to me!

OK good I'll put this on my TODO list. May take a month or two to find time to finish this - will report back here when I have something to share.
