Redesign


#1 The main point of my rewrite/restructure was to keep the content more digestible. That means breaking down big paragraphs into small items.

#2 I highlighted the most important things about the Playground:

  • it's not a full trial
  • there exists a full trial and paid offer
  • we encourage the user to explore features

#3 The XWiki Features section splits the most important features into 2:

  • the ones that can be tried out in Playground - I tried to only include the main ones as no one would have the patience to read every feature that we have
  • the ones that cannot be tried out in Playground - most important from administration

We also include a link to see the full page of Features that we have on xwiki.org

#4 The links in the XWiki Features section can lead to xwiki.org documentation pages.

  • Another idea would be to have light versions of those documentation pages directly in the Playground. Something easier to read, like a TL;DR.

#5 We use more emojies to make the pages more interesting visually and more friendly.

#6 The whole page uses more types of formatting, showcasing better what an XWiki page can look like.

Redesign


#1 We introduce the user in the product and we also underline the product value from the perspective of being open source - add

#2 We add the main features of XWiki as concise as possible as the page is longer than the one of the Playground.

  • The links can lead to xwiki.org documentation, even though I'd very much like them to point to a shorter documentation directly in the product.
  • We also add a link to the the entire Features page where user can dive into other features.

#3 We create a Quick links section with the most important actions the user would like to discover. All of these links are relative links, leading to parts of the user's specific instance.

#4 After these, we add a lists of quests / tasks for the user as a suggestion to try out certain basic features. 

#5 At the end, we list our some important links.
