[dot org] 2/9 Community TW .org Landing page - proposal

[PMario]

Hi,

For those who don't want to read - there is a List of videos about

Improve Community Communication proposal

02 TiddlyWiki Landingpage - proposal

Transcription of video #2

---------------------------

Hi Folks, This is Pietsch Mario again with the second video about How can we improve the community communication.

The first thing should be a proof of concept how a new tiddlywiki.org page could look like.

This is a proof of concept, which is the main page. The landing page is manually created.

But there is also some automatically created stuff which uses TiddlyWiki

and the TiddlyWiki build process to create a static web-page.

How does it look like. At the top left, there is a link that goes back to page.

There is a little bit of a menu and

there is the main area, which talks a little bit about the project

then there is a GettingStarted button which does nothing at the moment. It just jumps to the page

Then there is an area which talks a little bit about TiddlyWiki features.

I'm using them to also show the workflow afterwards, how to create feature requests

and there is some information about the different pages. Or let's say: different languages.

Language documentations. This page is already automatically created

I made a prototype some time ago already.

Where all the content are different tiddlers and the layout is a template.

And TiddlyWiki can create a static page with the different tiddler contents.

It looks like this

Relatively simple, but as a starting point it should give you an overview, how I think it can look like.

Then there is some "Call to Action" at the moment which does nothing.

What did I used to create  the static page. The project is called purecss.io.

It's a very basic CSS framework which has absolutely no javascript involved.

That's something I wanted to have.

There are different layout types.

There is the landing page

There is a prototype for a photo gallery, which we can use

There is something that looks like a blog

That one I used to display the different languages.

It can even be used to create something like an e-mail layout

If we would like to create our own e-mail client.

A pricing table and so on

There is also one important thing. The whole element is responsive

So if we use let's say: mobile phones
then it works

out of the box. So we go to the language pages ... and so on

Everything is mobile friendly.

Yea, that's the first part
How a landing page can look like

And I think before I go on
I switch of the video recording so I have shorter videos

So the next one will be Feature Requests

See you soon.

Ciao PMario & others interested in "landing page" options.

In another thread you mentioned I hold the address tiddly.wiki. It currently redirects to tiddlywiki.com.

I actually got hold of it because ...

• its a a very good address for TW as the domain name EXACTLY matches the product name
• and I didn't want chance someone not using TW might get it & it start turning up irrelevant searches in Google
• and third, the MAIN reason, ... it was a small thankyou to Jeremy & TW other developers for their work

I offered to transfer it to Jeremy's name but he was happy to leave as is for the moment just doing simple redirect.

• He was glad I got hold of it but thought to not do much with it yet to prevent invoking confusion with tiddlywiki.com.

BUT IF there were demand I'm sure we could transfer it for serious "Community" usage.

Let me & JR know if you interested.

Best wishes

TT
