"Onboarding" experience site for TL? #595

Open

Description

@jducoeur

Folks have observed that Unison has an excellent site for helping folks get started with the language, under https://share.unison-lang.org/

At least in principle, it would be great if we had something similar: some paint-by-numbers introductions that go beyond the current tutorials and ease the path of getting oneself started with TL projects.

This is a fairly tall order, not least because there are so many different kinds of potential TL projects: there's probably no one-size-fits-all starting points. But a few solid examples might be really helpful.

(Note that this isn't just a code-plus-text project: well-thought-out UX and information architecture are likely to also matter.)

    I don't fully understand what's going on on that page.

    First of all, it's a curated list of projects, categorized. Great. That's on our radar.

    And then they go to nice descriptions of the project in the main pane, with what looks like API doc on the left. Is that just a standard Unison project site? It's an nice experience, but we're a federated project without a standard site template. Some Laika, some Jekyll, some just a GitHub. Is there anything we can do to hook into documentation that Typelevel projects already provide, or are we looking at additional work per project here?

    At a glance, to me it looks to be the same as Scaladex
