== Main page redesign ==


I did a lift-and-shift of the main page onto the new style boxes we're using (e.g. the [[Project:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]]. Haven't touched the contents of the page at all, just the box design itself. You can see it [[User:DoggoBit/Sandbox/main_page|here]]. Feedback welcome.

= User Interface =
:Hey! I loved your design, I am not the mod here but let's hope it will get merged soon. [[User:Linux-DADDY|Linux-DADDY]] ([[User talk:Linux-DADDY|talk]]) 06:29, 30 July 2025 (UTC)
 
== Menu ==
 
The menu has now been rearranged, as discussed on [the github issue https://github.com/nixos-users/wiki/issues/3#event-1216650720]. The next steps:
 
1. write up the category pages under resources in a standardized way
2. add a bunch of links to articles we wanna have but don't have (getting started guides for everything, for example)
3. flesh out the [[Contribute to the Wiki]] page and [[main page]] to be more welcoming and clear
 
After this is done, it should be very easy for people to contribute.
 
 
== Graphic Design ==
 
=== Theme ===
 
I think it would be great to use some non-standard theme, to differentiate the wiki and make it our own.
 
I have been looking into bootstrap themes that are being maintained and found [Chameleon https://github.com/cmln/chameleon].
 
 
=== Favicon ===
 
The favicon seems to have a black background on my machine, which makes it look quite terrible. This can be solved by using the same one nixos.org uses. We might also considering making our favicon a bit different, it can be nice for those of us who like their bookmark bars filled with distinct icons and no text.
