Actually, all the previous posts are exact and good pointers to the BIG resources on the forum.
However.
I get the point.
[[EDIT - I did forget to note below that Learn and Teach are both in the navigation/menu bar at the top of the landing page. Though, of course, not in the strict context of the following.]]
Its not intuitive that learning resources / tools for beginners would appear very "directly" on the landing page for 'the entity' - that being Anywhere Software in this case. Everyone treats landing pages as the platform the MAJOR offering of an entity {{raa raa blah blah}}. (B4a / B4r / etc). But, on the basis
@Midimaster 's argument I would advocate [[in a case such as this type of company]] that, one of the ways to attract people into taking their investigation further would be to make the items in the screen captures below (2nd and 3rd) more prominent on the landing page. Maybe as a big link right below the banner. Currently, one has to go to the bottom of the page in the footer to find a link to
learning resouces in the links Learn and Teach (3rd capture). I remember posting an item elsewhere about how I came to find B4x. The one thing that attracted me was this forum, but, I didn't, at the time, locate the videos and the
@Erel teaches programming. Not saying that I would have had to look, since I am only a beginner with B4x/Android, and programming per se was not something I needed.
But, we know that there are very new people wanting to
'go there', as it were, with programming. Hey, when you hit retirement all sorts of prospects come to mind. All sorts of things people have always wanted to do - programming - have intrigued people for a long time in their lives.
Anyway . . . I think that
@Erel is a humble guy and doesn't want to take the bullhorn to his teaching platform and videos. But, its a major part of a
learning oriented philosophy that lies beside the heart of the B4X (
@Erel 's ) ethos.
So, here's a suggestion, I know you will all give it due consideration. . . amongst this lot on the landing pages, some more direct reference to :
Want to know about our learning tools and teaching videos for beginners. So, that might mean moving AND MORE.... down a line, and,
after a link worded something like that in the bold text here. That, of course, would make the items in the other two captures (the middle one particularly) directly accessible to someone like
@Midimaster. Maybe, a more "commercial" alternative to the bold text above :
Want to know more about what we offer for learning to program with B4X? ... And More...
I make the suggestion because I agree on the above sentiments about a beginner forum and beginner access. I am on record in these fora saying that this is the ONLY forum I have come across (and registered to belong to, ever) where beginners are
WHOLEY welcome and respected. And, that, is entirely
@Erel 's effect.
Come to think of it NONE of the items
ANDROID | IOS | WINDOWS | MAC | LINUX | ARDUINO | RASPBERRY PI |ESP8266 | AND MORE ... is CLICKABLE.
Just some thoughts.
