             Summary: [Shiny] Sling Website Design
                 Key: SLING-7242
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-7242
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Chris Millar
            Priority: Minor
         Attachments: Web 1920 – 1.png

As part of SLING-6666, it was mentioned the Sling website needs a re-design to 
help attract new developers and make the site easier to use on mobile devices.

Now that the site is on JBake, it probably makes sense to start working on this.

The attached mockup is an initial take on the homepage. It's not meant to be 
all-encompassing, but should provide a view into what the site could look like 
and how it could match the new Sling Launchpad design.

*Notes*
* The image is pulled from Adobe Stock. Hopefully this can be donated, or we 
can pull from the community to get an image we want to use. Was thinking 
"greenfield" and not overly distracting.
* I was looking for something punchy for the title text. "Effortlessly build 
resource-driven web-applications." is what I came up with.
* About text has been un-touched.
* Easy build instructions are right on the homepage. Docker first, with Java 
just a tab click away. This follows Docker now being the priority on the 
getting started page.
* News, Get Involved, and Additional Resource should be mostly self-explanatory.
* The navigation is designed around the common areas of the current left hand 
rail, but with tutorials being broken out. This is a result of the many devs 
I've on-boarded that prefer walk-throughs over raw docs.

Overall the idea is to give a single page of the main topics, but kick out to 
the pages already established.

Let me know your thoughts.
