[RFC] Merge Neovim.org & Dev Wiki

[jdavis]

Here's what I have so far based on what was discussed in #47. I put the Donation section on the homepage, changed up the navigation, added the Polls section to the homepage, and moved the Style Guide to be located at /develop/style-guide.xml.

I've been trying to test out jekyll-redirect-from which is a plugin that we can use with GitHub Pages to do redirects but can't seem to get it to work locally. I'm going to continue to try to see if I can get it to work.

I don't know if there is any advantage to having the style-guide in XML. I think it might be better to have it as HTML and convert it to using the same colors as the website styling.

Anyways, I'll put the screenshots below (shrunken massively). Let me know what you think.

it seems odd that bower would be checked in, even if it was being used.

redirects for permanent links is a very good idea if it doesn't add too much complication.

Seems like a great idea to me. It's a one-time cost, and editing the XML isn't any nicer than editing some HTML. Would like to keep the show/hide behavior though.

Why not put the poll in the negative space under the sponsers section? Might need to tighten up the verbiage though.

Great work, thanks for doing this!

[jdavis]

Cool, I'll see if I can get the redirects working.

Also, I don't know why I didn't think of the Polls being under the Sponsors section. That is a good idea. I'll let you know when I've made the changes.

[jdavis]

Okay, I have some redirects in place and moved the Polls section. I ended up putting it under the Stay Informed section; the different headers clashed being under the Sponsors section. Here's what it looks like:

Here's what it looks like to make a redirect so it is really painless: c860f06

Let me know what you think, @justinmk.

[justinmk]

Beautiful. 👍 Please merge it!

[justinmk]

http://neovim.org/ looks good :) Thanks again!

[Hinidu]

@jdavis I just noticed that style guide page was moved. So we should reflect this in https://github.com/neovim/neovim/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md
Could you do that change? Or could I do it?
Generally: thank you for amazing work!

[jdavis]

Hey @Hinidu, either of us could do it. I held off because @justinmk noted that he wants to update it neovim/neovim#740 (comment) here. I think it'd probably be beneficial to merge in those changes if they are finished. If not, then at least updating the link to the style-guide would be good. But I know Justin is pretty busy with other things.
