Feedback

  • Is a news section really needed? What kind of news would be there? - AndreasNilsson

  • What three features should be highlighted? What are the 3 coolest features? - AndreasNilsson

    • I think this should be Christian to decide, i just can point some from my personal taste, but i'm a designer - AlexandreMiguel

    • Auto Completion, overview map, and the build popover at the top maybe? It might be nice if these could rotate with JS or something in case we want more. - ChristianHergert

  • Maybe the screenshots could be of the features? Maybe it's the same section? - AndreasNilsson

    • I have put into separated sections, screenshots above and could open with some Javascript on click, but i'm open to test your idea too - AlexandreMiguel

  • What's in the Menu?
    • Features, Screenshots, Footer contacts, Wiki, Documentation, Bugzilla, etc. Some could be on the same page and just scroll down, others outside the website - AlexandreMiguel
