A rough prototype of what a revised website might look like

Please continue to provide feedback.


Richard,

Your sample certainly loads a lot faster the the ActiveState web page. I've always liked the speed of the SQLite site and would hate to see it suffer to provide the kind of eye candy that the ActiveState's site uses.

I agree with those that are asking for improved content more than "improved" presentation. However, I would suggest removing the vertical bar separators between the main navigation links on your new sample site. In my opinion they don't do anything except clutter the list.

I would also suggest that the 5 minute example code should be revised to use the new prepare/step/finalize API rather than sqlite_exec with a callback function. This would help to start new users off in the right direction.

As other have said, I think it would be better to have the some of the wiki items moved into the main documentation page, in particular the date and time functions.

I've alway thought the bugs link on the main page should take you to the cvstrac home page http://www.sqlite.org/cvstrac/index rather than to the new ticket page http://www.sqlite.org/cvstrac/captcha?nxp=/cvstrac/tktnew. The current design makes it harder than it should be to just go look for existing bug reports.

Finally, I would suggest that old versions of the binaries and source be made available explicitly on the download page, so users don't have to be told to manually enter a URL in the same format as the current items, but with different version numbers. The download page could have a single link to an "old versions" page, which is a list of links to download pages for each released version. Each of those links should lead to a download page for the old version that looks basically the same as the current version.
