<![CDATA[An idea for the UBports/UBtouch website]]>Hi all,
I've been complaining for a while about the UBports website, but I needed to be constructive. So I finally found some spare time to produce a mock up of something that corrects (according to my own taste) the navigation and communication issues of the actual ubports/ubuntu_touch.io websites.

Here under the ubuntu_touch.io :
ubuntutouch.png

The UBports community page :
ubports.png

The "help eachothers" header :
letshelpeachother.png

The different visual identities for the "Community", and for the "product" pages:
Visual Identities.PNG

I didn't specified yet the full navigation in the websites. I suppose it is quite straightforward. Don't expect to have the full content of the actual webpage inside : my point was exactly to cut down all the unnecessary wordings/subpages...
Last comment : I furiously copied the official Canonical page. It was on purpose.

The idea is dropped, let's challenge it on the forum 🙂

So far as I recall, only one community port has ever appeared, all the Halium ports have some way to go, and the non-Halium devices are in early days yet, so hasn't it actually been a couple of years since the list grew?

Thanks!

Here a short term solution (link available for three weeks only) :
https://filetransfer.io/data-package/kyCgKUaN

The zip contains the exports for this forum, the exports at the correct definition (1920px wide for the desktop mode for instance), the raw .svg sources and a pdf version for an easier preview than openning Inkscape.

Sorry for the poor resolution, but we're at the limit of the max image sizes. I also wanted to share the .svg file, but it exceeds the max size... (together with embedded images, it makes 35Mb...). If wanted, we'll find a way to share it !

Perhaps Imgur or similar?
Anyways, the amount of effort you've put into it, and the quality of your concepts, is amazing!

So I kept doing and here a new version, including tablet and phone formats.

A clearer header : now the "Ubports supports UBtouch" is in reading order.

The corresponding curtain menu contains more stuff :

And there is a "burger menu" phone version :

The UBports welcome page, Desktop size:

The UBtouch welcome page, Desktop size :
ubuntutouch.png

The UBtouch welcome page, tablet size, with reshaping comments :
ubuntutouch_tablet_size.png

The UBtouch welcome page, phone size, with reshaping comments :
ubuntutouch_phone_size.png

The promoted device page, in desktop mode (and partially incomplete), as an example of a subpage. I guess the table-like presentation is straight forward to convert into phone mode.

It looks great in my opinion. It does give a good oversight of all major features and subjects. It is easy to understand even for non geeks. Good job.
