How to use this book (+ image ideas) #38

Open apreshill opened 5 years ago

apreshill commented 5 years ago

To add to the preface, I think we may want to make sure folks who dive into the cookbooks can find clear links/chapters based on the following 3 "wants" (inspired by our local farmer's market :):

  1. "I'm in a default mood" (image idea: like a bouquet of daisies/roses/carnations- something still nice but "classic") --> this link will send them to the most basic chapter of using a default template and deploying to GH Pages

  2. "I want to have nice things" (image idea: store front of bouquets that are our templates, pretty :) --> this link will send them to the TBD rmd4edu template they can just use

  3. "I want to learn to make nice things" (image idea: field of flowers or something, thinking custom) --> this link will send them to the (series of) chapters for making and then customizing the default site.

All image ideas may be trashed, just thinking we may want to highlight these 3 wants at the beginning of each cookbook, and call them out somewhere in our philosophy section.

OK one more image idea! @dcossyleon I'm hoping that here some ideas (crappy as they may be) can at least be better than nothing :)

default = box of cookies (like oreos) template = cookie clearly from a bakery custom = baking your own damn cookies

OK enough from me 🍪 (clearly I should go back to my bakeoff project!)

I like all of these ideas! Probably partial to the cookies if for no other reason that it goes with the "cookbook" imagery more than flowers. I'm going to make an "illos" list
