SFML Website Design
« on: June 07, 2023, 03:40:10 am »
Hello, The SFML website needs a graphical update. The aero style that rules the website isn't trustworthy in the present day because people associate it with viruses and phishing sites. If SFML got a graphical update then more people would use it because it would seem more appealing to those who want to create projects that are up-to-date with the current times. I do graphical design as a hobby, and I would be willing to help you, thanks.

That's rather absurd :D
Also a bit far fetched to call this "aero style".

I don't see a need to change the design and also don't subscribe to the trend of constant redesign.

What we do need help with is making the site more mobile friendly.
If you're up for that, then I'm happy to accept a PR on the Website repo :)

That's a bit of an exaggeration. Maybe it would smell fishy/oldschool to the average tiktoker but I don't think any C++ developer would associate it with viruses of phising :o
Don't even look at the SDL website :D
