north-star's Issues

Add a footer menu

We currently use the footer to link to frequently visited pages that, for some reason or another, did not fit in the main menu. The footer is WIP anyway, but it really needs some links. :)

Reconsider crosslinks between sections

Currently, all sections have persistent crosslinks in the right header part that direct the readers towards other parts of the site:

The idea is, in principle, good. However, it takes up a lot of space in the header, and reduces the amount of actual navigation items we can place. Also, in some cases, this already breaks for smaller, but not yet mobile, viewports:

I like the large CTA button, but maybe we can rethink this a bit to still have some form of crosslinks available, while not eating up the entire header. Maybe a dropdown-thingy?

Add "run in tmux/screen" banner to upgrade guides

Which section does this content belong to?
Upgrade guides, mainly major upgrades.

Request
Make an includeable warning box that alerts podmins to always run migrations inside screen or tmux to avoid their session dying and the migrations being interrupted, as that might yield some bad states.

Optimize for mobile devices

While the base layout already works, there are several rough edges. For example, take this screenshot:

IMG_C7B31876212E-1

  • headlines are way too big
  • header takes up half of the screen.
  • date-dividers break as there is not enough horizontal space

And that's just one page, so there is a lot to work on. :)

Add an "edit this site" link

This popped up in a chat on 35c3, but I don't remember who said it. 😿

All contents are markdown files anyway, so we could add a link to GitHub to each site. When on GitHub, the workflow is actually surprisingly simple, clicking the "edit" button automatically creates a fork if you don't have write permissions to the repo, and it's very easy to create a pull request from there.

Set up autodeployment

So far, noone has directly rejected this proposal, so I'll work on it a bit more to polish some things. With people accessing our pre-preview version, it would be good to update the deployed state whenever possible, but I am lazy, so let's autodeploy.

The current site is deployed whenever we push to a production branch, but I feel like this was an unnecessary step. We can develop larger ideas off-master, and be fine with having master autodeploy, so let's do that!
