Subject: [xtext-dev] Xtext Website
Hey Folks,
within the next weeks we want to overhaul the users' first impression
of Xtext. This does not only affect the UI (e.g. Wizards) or a ready-
to-use distro but public material such as documentation and the
website as well. So far, only the wiki page at http://wiki.eclipse.org/Xtext
informs the first-time user about Xtext's capabilities. To improve
this situation I want to establish a face-lifted web appearance of
Xtext that resides at http://www.eclipse.org/Xtext. If have already
discussed this topic with some of you and clarified some technical
issues with the webmasters of eclipse.org. We will be able to provide
a custom design, present off-site links to the oAW Distribution and do
other fancy (php-based) stuff as well if we want to.
If have collected a few items that outline this effort and I would
highly appreciate feedback.
First step: A Landing page
Appealing Look
Short description about Xtext in general
(Screenshot / Diagram ?)
Easy to find download link
Documentation
Professional Support (non annoying)
Key Features
Note for irritated Xtext oAW users
Status (latest commit, twitter, blog headlines) to appear fresh
Second, a restructured web page the conforms to these ideas
Landing Page (see above)
Documentation
online version of documentation
tutorials (n minute)
screencasts
DSL examples
other resources (such as articles or noteworthy blog
posts)
Testimonials or "Users that are impressed by Xtext"
Support
Newsgroup
Bugzilla
Off-Link to "Professional Support"
Contribute / Developer
Team (People behind the scenes, short bio?)
Wiki
JavaDoc, JUnit-Reports
Sources
Metrics
Please feel free to comment this list. In the next days I will send
around some design documents to feed the discussion.
@itemis kiel: Tomorrow morning I will be at the office. How about a
short discussion based on the current designs?
