#605 New Fedora Documentation — homepage design (by Flock 2018)
Closed: Fixed 5 years ago Opened 5 years ago by asamalik.

We are working on a new Fedora Documentation site using Antora — there are many technical and contribution-related benefits that come with it. Preview: https://docs.stg.fedoraproject.org

The thing we're struggling with is the homepage. We believe the one we currently have does the job — it works on a PC and on a phone, and it's structured in a way to be intuitive. But we're not sure about the visual part.

Would you please help us make the home page prettier? Or if you think it's good enough, would you give us an approval to use it initially?

The UI sources are here: https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/fedora-docs-ui Build and preview of the UI should be straightforward — documented in the README, only requires docker.

Our goal is to get the new site in production before Flock.

I'll talk to @ryanlerch and see what he thinks he can offer here. It would be nice to have this seem part and parcel of the project.

I'm happy to help with the mechanics if needed.

The structure is final, only the visual side needs to be tweaked.

We'll be migrating the Docs site over the weekend, going production next Wednesday 1 August. We don't think we need to block on design, even though we feel it's very important.

Please let me know if I can be of any help.

@asamalik this is acutally looking pretty good!

was there anything in particular you wanted to fix? do you want it closer to the current layout on the asciidoctor one? or are you happy as is?

@ryanlerch Thanks! If you like it, then we can probably close this ticket as done.

My goal was to have someone from the design team to either say "it's good" or to improve it.

I feel like we can close this issue.
