Re: [aerogear-dev] Aerogear Website design

I would also highlight importance of supporting developers coming from different platforms (Java on Android, ObjC/Swift on iOS, and plain JavaScript, JavaScript in Cordova). I know that it might be hard to combine with a concept of feature-oriented pages, but I imagine we could allow at least color- or icon-based highlights for different platforms (icon of Droid - lightblue code sample background, icon of apple - silver background, JS logo light-yellow background, Cordova logo - pink background!) + I would even consider a something like select box in top navbar that allows to filter out platform specific information. ;-) On Tue, Nov 11, 2014 at 8:05 AM, Matthias Wessendorf <matzew(a)apache.org&gt; wrote: > > > On Tue, Nov 11, 2014 at 6:04 AM, Bruno Oliveira <bruno(a)abstractj.org&gt; > wrote: > >> Ahoy my friend, answers inline.
