Currently working on "Tech Stack" unit while I wait for answers for the "About the Open edX project" form.

Hi! I changed the title of this to Product Overview.

Can you please move the last unit to module 3?

I added a first unit called "Defining Product" and rewrote the product offerings section to be more accessible. I wrote the OEP-57 so probably easier for me to figure out how to summarize this. I also added a third unit to present the OEP-57 diagram (a bit simplified) and explain more in depth. Can you please review these? Is the third unit too complicated?

I was thinking of adding a fourth section about the Product Working Group and how to get involved if this interests you. How does that sound?

Finally, what images or other stuff could we add to make this more interesting?

Hello! I moved the architecture unit to module 3! Thanks for the reminder.

This is great content! Just a short note on the last unit, so it is more beginner-friendly:

behind the scenes code that lets you use extensions like XBlocks and LTI

Could we add links for Xblocks and LTI docs? I feel that a newcomer wouldn't know what these extensions are. Same comment for the bundled extensions.

There's a section in the Community module where we include a list of all the wg with relevant info, do you think we could add that there? Or is it better right there on the product overview?

That's a great idea!

Hmmm.... I'm not sure. How about a fourth section that says "We have a working group yay! If you're interested in this you should come to a meeting. See the Working Groups section of this course for more info" (with a link to the WG section)

@sarina I like the idea of a 4th section! 🥇

Great! I'm going to leave this ticket open until we write the Working Groups unit, so that I remember to link to it from this section.
