- Changed the 'Get Started' button to 'Learn more about Monero' which now links to the 'What is Monero?' page
- Replaced the 'Why Monero is different' section with 'Get started', which now contains the info and links necessary to
start using Monero. The picture were taken from the 'Using' page, now removed.
- Removed 'Downloads' and added 'Guide and Resources'
- Removed 'Last news' box
- Added a 'Join the Community' section
Removed all _data/LANG/roadmap.yml files and moved all strings to _i18n/LANG.yml to take advantage of the multilingual
plugin. Also removed all loops in resources/roadmap/index.md, now we simply map to each placeholder.
Removed completely the 'The Monero Project' page and related entries in _i18n/en.yml. Replaced entry in header with 'Translate', which links to Weblate (translate.getmonero.org)
This new approach doesn't require version numbers and make easier for contributors to understand the status
of the document. There are only 3 states:
- Outdated: The page is outdated and might not work as expected
- Untranslated: The page needs to be translated
- Translation outdated: The page is translated, but the original (English) document has been updated
To mark a guide as outdated, we change the boolean of the front matter entry 'outdated' in /resources/user-guides/GUIDE.
If 'False', the guide is updated. If 'True' all versions of the guide (English included) will show a warning at the bottom
of the page.
The other 2 states are related to the status of the translated pages and we control them from the language-specific
user guides: /_i18n/LANG/resources/user-guides/GUIDE. At the top of the page a snippet will include 2 parameters:
- translated: "yes" if the page is translated, "no" if it's not.
- translationOutdated: "yes" if the translation is outdated, "no" if it's not
This new system aims to be simpler than the precedent, avoiding to compare versioning numbers and using a higher level
system instead (yes, no, True, False). I also removed the middle way status 'only minor changes', because if there are
only minor changes that don't affect the usability of the guide, we don't need to point it out.
The old system was complex and people didn't use it. These changes will hopefully make things easier for translators and
other contributors.
