Reorganize use-case page

Open karthik opened this issue 11 years ago • 5 comments

Right now the page is a wall of ecology (not even larger biology) use cases with one general one (mapping) hidden in the middle. This could really turn away new visitors on first glance when they first visit the page for use case ideas.

I think the best way to address this will be to addd subfolders or categories. Ecology, Text mining, Mapping to begin with and nest them underneath. That way people interested in one area can dig deeper while others can see all the various possibilities without being scared away at first glance.

sounds good to rearrange, just haven't had time to make it look better, have been meaning to give it a facelift

We could think about using Ramnath's rcharts gallery as a model http://rcharts.io/gallery/

Or even what RStudio has done with the Shiny showcase.

Just a reboot of this, from recent discussion on hackpad

We need to make the use cases page more general and less ecology centric (or ecology only as it looks now).

rCharts gallery page as a template? What other approaches might work?
