In partial fulfillment of the goals of NIFI-162, I set some time aside to put together something a bit more visually appealing as a face for the project.
My work can be found at: https://github.com/apiri/apache-nifi-site Currently, work focused around the homepage, but similar styles would be applied to more content driven pages minus the large headlining sections. The relevant technology colophon is provided in the README on Github but is primarily driven by Bootstrap, existing image resources included with the project and current site, and other "artwork" which I created myself. I am neither a UX expert nor am I a renowned front end designer, so all input is welcome. As a "version 1.1" I would like to adjust the site to converge more with the application. Ideas for this are inclusive of points such as bringing the toolbar styling and color scheme from the application to the site. If this seems like a reasonable path forward and there is sufficient support, I can look at the next steps to get this integrated with the project, optimization, and integration with the application itself. To aid in showing the intangibles that can't be seen from an image, I have a copy of this design hosted at http://aldrinpiri.com/apache-nifi/. The links are currently nonfunctional as they were taken from the current site. Thanks! --Aldrin
