Analysis

Online location and website

  • Do we want a "dedicated" website for this? Yes because running of a github repo? See more analysis below
  • Where is that dedicated website e.g. at labs.lifeitself.us/web3/ or lifeitself.us/web3/? suggest at subdomain because a) can be powered by a repo which others can contribute to b) a little more independent. => https://web3.lifeitself.us ...
  • How do we build a website?
    • What is the "backend"? 2022-02-26 will start with markdown in github and see if that cuts it
      • What are options? a)markdown on github b) a headless cms like sanity c) wordpress
      • Which do we choose choose github + markdown because simple, allows for open contribution (have a reasonably tech-y contributor base)
    • What do we use for the frontend? NextJS as already using it and solid.
      • Is raw github sufficient? No we want something nicer.
      • Do we use a template? Not much - keep it barebones for now
  • What is the home page See https://excalidraw.com/#room=f31febc4be4500863e2c,j3FmcGnhKLb8xlw53pBe6w
  • Is there a need for a blog? No, Maybe in the future
    • Do we need comments / discussion? Maybe and if so we can use github discussions?? or giscus ...?
  • Do we need user signup? No - people are publishing via github

Design

  • How nice to we make this look To start with can be very basic ... and we'd like to make it look good
  • What's the vibe? Friendly, yet authoritative/rigorous. It will be content heavy not many images ...
  • Where can we find inspiration? 🏃‍♂️ Look at https://www.awwwards.com/websites/tailwind/, dribble, https://www.lapa.ninja
