Description

Updating Official Website. We are currently discussing on the mailing list too.

------

I would like to suggest updating official homepage. Here are few reasons.

1. It’s hard to find content for beginners.

For example, Let’s say I want to use python and don’t much know about Zeppelin.
But the main page doesn’t say what should I do.
As you know, The tutorial is quite outdated and The homepage doesn’t have a getting started section.
Also, if I want to know how to use `%python` interpreter, I should click twice.

• Docs -> Version
• Interpreter -> Python

However, I don’t see beginner can do this easily. Even they don’t know what is the interpreter.

2. Content is not organized for different types of users.

Some users are admins. Others might be just individual users or developers.
But the current official page doesn’t provide useful information for each group.

For example, an admin might want to know about multiple user supports. (Login / Logout) or
Let’s say I want to configure zeppelin spark interpreter for my yarn / mesos cluster.
But the problem is, It’s not easy to find that information. Also, some information is not included in official docs.
