The current libvirt website design dates from 2008 and
has not changed significantly since. Compared to
contemporary open source project websites it looks
pretty dated and cluttered.
This series incrementally changes the website to have
a completely new layout and branding.
Since the original adobe illustrator files are long
since lost, this series introduces a newly created
variant of the libvirt logo with Inkscape as an SVG
file.
The libvirt logo used a specific font with angled tops
to letters like "l", "b" and "t" - this is the
"Overpass"
font, made available by Red Hat under an open source
font license. The re-branding makes use of webfont
support so that we can use this font across the entire
libvirt website for a consistent look.
The colors of the website CSS now exactly match the
colors used in the logo in most places.
The bigger change is in the layout, with the huge
left hand sitemap nav bar being removed to give more
space to the main content. The front page now directly
links to the key pages that were shown to be highly
visited in the apache web logs. Most of the rest of
the links are now available from the "docs.html" page
linked from "Learn" in the top nav bar.
Another key change is that the download page now
covers all language bindings, test suites, docs
released by the project, not merely the core C
library.
Finally a new page "contribute.html" is added as the
source of information useful to people wishing to get
involved in the libvirt project.
View the new site here
https://berrange.fedorapeople.org/libvirt-new-website/
Note that the front page includes a feed of 4 most
recent blog posts, however, if visiting over https://
this will be blocked by browsers. In firefox you
can tell it to allow http:// content temporarily
at which point the feed will appear. I'll be doing
a proper fix by getting a TLS cert for virt-tools.org
website setup.
