Hi Caty,
that's nice! I think it avoids the overwhelming of choosing what to
download on the current page presenting standard pack + zip + xip + war
+ docker, etc.
Now, I have some questions:
1. I don't understand the "OS" choice section: AFAIK except for the deb
package we don't have any related package. It's for displaying those in
case of debian / ubuntu is selected?
2. Currently we display the major changes along with the version in the
downloaded page: I don't see it anymore in your version. You plan to
completely discard this info there?
3. I don't understand why there are arrows on the version: you plan to
allow changing the LTS version? it wouldn't be the LTS anymore then, so
a bit confusing, no?
4. Shouldn't the dev version not be as big as the LTS / stable, since
it's not recommended? Or at least to discard the prod installation when
it's selected?
My 2 cents,
Simon

Hi Devs,
I'm curious what you think about this direction for the Download / Install
page on xwiki.org:
Iteration 1
https://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Install/LDJEasierInstallationFl…
Changes:
* Download renamed to Install
* Form at the beginning to select the version, OS, type and package
* Depending on the user selection, there is an option to Download the
package, or you just get Installation steps (personalized for each option
selected).
I've iterated currently just for the ZIP package (for Demo+Mac), but
imagine something similar for all the other packages.
What do you think? Should I continue in this direction?
Thanks,
Caty
