{F5745072} =Landing page= == Menus== That run across the top of the page and are replicated on all pages. - **Projects/Software:** Where we list the most prominent projects KDE produces: --- **Plasma/Plasma Mobile** (of course) with links to related tech, such as Kirigami, Halium, etc. --- **Most popular projects** of the moment (may change with time, as popularity shifts) --- **Project of the month** - a rotating project that changes every month (week?), so as to give fair coverage to a wider range of projects (?) - **News** -- **Dot** -- **Announcements** -- **Press kit** - Include hi-res logos, photos, and other media for the press to use. -- **Press contacts** - People journalists can contact for information or who can route them to source of news (i.e. the board, a project leader, etc.). Also links to press mailing list for press releases and news. - **About** -- **KDE e.V.** - Include information about vision, board members, legalese, budgets, etc. -- **Community** - Include description of community, links to wikis, IRC groups, etc. -- **FAQ** - Maybe this should be it's own main menu item? - **"Store"** - I am putting this in quotes because some people don't like the term "store". Personally, I think it should be up to what users usually call these things, and for them, this will always be a store. -- **Gear** - Whoever came up with the name for this is a genius. This is where people can buy mugs, apparel, pins, etc. -- **Apps (?)** - Could contain Flatpacks, AppImages of apps that can be installed on several platforms (GNU/Linux, Windows, macOS, etc.). Could also contain links to apps for PlasmaMobile, when things take off. Could also contain links to downloads of KDE-enabled OSes, such as KDE neon, openSUSE, Manjaro KDE, etc. == Other Links == In the body of the page in the shape of buttons, lists, etc. === Visitor Links === We want to help people quickly find what they are looking for. As KDE technologies is of interest to a wide variety of people with different needs, it makes sense to route them to different services and applications. - **End user** - Would be user that come looking for Plasma for everyday use and end-use applications, like Kdenlive, Krita, Okular, etc. Direct to: app store and/or FAQ (?) - **Contributor** - Or potential contributor: person who is or wants to be a user, and participates or wants to participate more actively with the community. Directo to: New users can be sent to wiki page how to help. Registered users to services for reigstered contributors (Phabricator, Wiki, etc.) - **Business** - Companies that want to work with use or with KDE technologies. Direct to: how to... a human? Someone who can find out how we can help them? - **Educator (?)** - Not sure about this one, but as we have KDE-edu, it may make sense. It is for teachers, principals, students, parents, who want to use KDE apps for educational purposes. Direct to: Subsection of app store form where they can download educational software- (WARNING) Shower thought: If this becomes a consistent part of our userbase, maybe develop a more end-user oriented part of the wiki for them (as https://community.kde.org/KDEEdu is more targeted at developers) and link that from here. === News/Announcements === Boxes that shows feeds with links from other sources. - **Releases** - Shows up to date information of releases, such as Plasma, applications, frameworks, etc. Headlines are links to full announcement. - **Dot** - Shows headlines from dot.kde.org. Headlines are links to full story. - **Twitter (?)**
