Redesign site? #4

Open AlecDusheck opened 5 years ago

AlecDusheck commented 5 years ago

As mentioned in this issue, I proposed recreating the site (since we are ditching the Github website hosting and not using their platform anymore).

Anyone have any platform ideas? I was thinking about nginx + Angular 6 for frontend. This would allow for cool page transitions and easy expansion.

Maybe this would be a good project for when we start having regular meetings?

I agree. This is a great project for new people to work on. I am definitely for NGINX—I use it on most of my dedis. I am not that familiar with Angular 6, but I don't really use JS that much anyway, so I'm down for using it. For the backend want to use Django? I've used it on a few projects, and it has seemed to treat me quite nice. It is undoubtably a lot better than PHP, and I'm pretty sure more people here know Python than Ruby if we were going the Rails route.

We would definitely want to go with Django. Like you said, we should probably avoid Rails as most people (especially noobs) definitely won't know Ruby.
