ReactiveCocoa
Offer of design/front-end help
Not really an issue but this seemed like the logical place to put it…
I'm primarily a designer but ReactiveCocoa is totally rocking my world - changed the way I think about iOS programming. I'm not nearly smart enough to contribute to ReactiveCocoa/ReactiveCocoa, but I'd love to lend a hand on the website if there's anything you need doing (maybe in the run-up to 3.0?).
Couldn't see a roadmap anywhere; ping me here or @jongold on Twitter if you want :)
I would love any and all design contributions :smile:.
Feel free to play around with some ideas and submit pull requests. Maybe open an issue to discuss a few design options as a starting point?
Yeah, definitely. I'm neither a designer nor a web developer, so the website isn't nearly as awesome as it could be.
Rad - I'll start by researching other project homepages and have a think about what sort of content would be useful. One thing I really liked from the RAC README.md is the before/after comparison of KVO/target-action/notifications/delegates, and RAC signals - I think they're really useful for getting across the why would I want to FRP to beginners.

I'm just going to throw this up as something to consider in the future. I know it's not exactly the main purpose of the site.
While teaching people RAC, I've seen that they start to get an idea of how it helps reshape code, but then they get confused about the differences between operators. eg. combineLatest: vs merge: vs zip: vs concat.
I think there's room here for some visualisation to get the behaviour across.
That might be a fun project in itself - wouldn't even need to be RAC specific but would be useful for anyone getting started with FRP. The diagrams in https://gist.github.com/staltz/868e7e9bc2a7b8c1f754 were pretty good; could definitely work on something broader.
