Hi guys, over the last couple of weeks (in particular after presenting on TP3 in Seattle at the end of June) I have gotten some feedback from a number of folks who wanted to try out TP3 but didn't know where to start or what to do. A lot of that comes back to the current homepage: http://tinkerpop.incubator.apache.org/
While this page contains all the information experienced TP users would want to find, newbies seem to get lost: - It doesn't really explain what TinkerPop is or does beyond the generic statement "provides graph computing capabilities". Why should somebody care about TP3? What does it do specifically? What does it look like in practice? - There is no "Getting Started". While the documentation is a beautifully written and comprehensive document, for a total newcomer it is very overwhelming. Not saying that the website is bad, but that it doesn't serve newcomers and interested developers very well. I would suggest that we delegate some information (e.g. 3rd party libraries, how to contribute) to subpages and use the homepage to help newcomers figure out what this is. I think Apache Spark does a reasonable job at this: https://spark.apache.org/ Would you guys mind if I took a crack at this with Daniel's help on getting started and some examples? If so, how can I get access to the page to make some suggested changes? Thanks, Matthias
