REBOL Web Site Thoughts
[1/5] from: ryan:christiansen:intellisol at: 5-Apr-2001 10:59
I'm working on creating another resource page for REBOL programmers and I'd
like some input. What would you like to see in a web site that focuses on
REBOL?
I know there are other sites already out there, but I'd like your input,
anyway, before I put my site together. Here are my thoughts so far:
-FAQ (based on posts to rebol-list)
-REBOL developer profiles (including REBOL interests, accomplishments,
links, mini resume, and even a mug shot photo)
-News (of course)
-Links to other REBOL sites.
-Links to online REBOL resources.
-Links for purchasing REBOL books.
-Tutorials.
-A library of functions built using native 'words only.
-A library of dialects.
-A library of single-purpose scripts (would like to use build-lib.r and
reboldoc.r for script descriptions)
-REBOL style guide.
-Links to REBOL e-mail discussions on eScribe and rebol.org.
-Links to /Express conference logs
-Links to REBOL binaries.
-Links to REB sites.
The whole site should be built using REBOL, of course.
I already have ideas for a name for the site, but I haven't purchased the
domain yet and so I won't share that quite yet. What are your thoughts?
I've already done something similar for BeOS at http://www.beosjournal.com.
Help is also welcome.
I have LOTS of bandwidth to burn for this site.

Hi,
It seems most sites about REBOL donīt have a section where
one can see REBOL scripts compared to similar written in PERL
In Brazil, most ISP people use PERL because they donīt know REBOL.
We all in here know REBOL is easier to learn, read and understand and that
it makes clean scripts, much faster and shorter than those written in PERL.
But we are a small group compared to the people that use PERL all around.
We need some more about this topic I think.

For the domain name, a rather obvious choice would be rebol.net.
Another could be rebolworker.org.
Anyway, the thing I would most like to see is a good faq,
based - as you said - on posts to rebol-list. I'm glad that there
is a faq on the official website, but none of my questions were
on it, and I am not interested in any of the questions listed
there.
Along the same line, something that would be helpful would
be snippets of code - not example scripts; something along the
lines of RT's how-to page.

Hmm. I really need to upgrade http://www.codeconscious.com with some more
up-to-date info then.
