Awesome! So beautiful! I can just kee
I loved Mathematica's documentation that had "lovingly maintained
by..." in the sidebar or something to that effect. It was really
apparent that the maintainer did lovingly maintain it. Can't seem to
find it at the moment though.

I'm going to have to really read through the sources now.

You talked me into it.

What's the best way to allow collaborative contribution on content that
must be agreed upon?
Here's one approach: Make a github of the code and content that runs the
site. People fork and make pull requests.

You guys are over-thinking it. Set up a new site, get users, tweak it,
perfect it, it will become the defacto site, and you will make it
really easy for Rich et al to make the switch :). It may take loads of
hard and unappreciated labor though :(. That is why it has to be a
labor of love.
On Wed,
The general feeling seems to be that there is good content out there, but
it would be nice if it were on Clojure.org, especially from the perspective
of new users and promoting the language.
The copyright on the site is to Rich Hickey, and the logo and site design
are credited to Tom Hickey. No
Clojuredocs is already out there and quite good (though not modified
much as of late). However, it doesn't show up very high on Google
(not even on the first page for "Clojure"). There's also Learn
Clojure, which has a clean design but hasn't been updated in a while
(and also doesn't seem to have
You can make your site with many examples and good documentation and maybe
it will be at first place at google if it will have great value.
A lot of people here will agree with that. Site could be better place to
get started ! but old site still there.

I should clarify that the issue with Clojure.org isn't really \design,

I put together the Getting Started confluence page. I'm sure it could
still be improved, but adding further to it won't really fix the
problems you've noticed, and that many other people have noted. It's
still on a secondary site, and Confluence doesn't really give you a
lot of design options
Sounds like the main beef is with the official website's styling and
layout. I agree its not necessarily the prettiest but all the information
is there. On the other hand, there are plenty of great resources that
provide a great "getting started" experience in my opinion. Just typing
clojure in
Probably they wouldn't, but that's not the point.
The clojure community is doing something wrong for providing a coherent
beginner experience.
Maybe we aren't good at encouraging people to contribute documentation.
Or the composability of Clojure leads to small "library islands" without
much commu

I decided to quickly compare the website experience of starting Clojure and
starting Scala.
I do a Google search for Clojure
I decide to try the first link, Clojure.org
There's some basic information. I follow the somewhat obscure link halfway
down the side, "Getting Started"
