Make last-word calculator the homepage? #33

Open mflaxman opened 3 years ago

mflaxman commented 3 years ago

The last word calculator (https://seedpicker.net/calculator/last-word.html) is great and ultimately what I'd guess almost all of the people who arrive at seedpicker are trying to use. I think it would be a better homepage, and the current https://seedpicker.net/ might be better suited for something like https://seedpicker.net/calculator/instructions.html.

Put differently: a UX this good doesn't require you to first read the manual :)

You could still link to the instructions from the last word calculator (as you currently do).

This is my intention as well, and has been for a while. The big link on the top of the Readme was just a temporary fix. Will probably get around to do it soon :)

This has been done now. Quickest solution was to add a redirecting index.html in the root. This is not optimal, but after a quick search I couldn't figure out another way to get Jekyll / Github Pages to use a custom start page. This works for now though.

The earlier start page, the repo readme, is still reachable - through a link in the calculator's intro text.

Wouldn't this work?: $ git mv calculator/last-word.html index.html

I figure I must be missing something though.

Thanks. That was the first thing I tried, but I didn't get it to work. :( I instinctively though the start page was configurable but I could not find any docs mentioning that. Didn't spend a lot of time on it though.

Hi guys, when I click the "guide"-link I just arrive on the calculator-page...

Thanks @jorgen99!! Much appreciated! My bad, fixed now.
