crossplane.io v0.3 reflects the updated roadmap / vision

[prasek]

Crossplane has made a ton of progress since 0.2, so the crossplane.io website need to be updated to match. Enable users to rapidly understand Crossplane, get started, and find the information they're looking for.

Part of the 0.3 release

What seems to be the problem?

Crossplane has made a ton of progress since 0.2 and the crossplane.io website needs to be updated to reflect the 0.3 enhancements, reflect the updated roadmap & vision, and make it easier for new users & contributors to get started.

What could Crossplane do to help?

Our current thinking is that the crossplane.io website should be updated:.

• Use the consistent language from Curate and document the common concepts and terminology of Crossplane crossplane#636
• Curated content updated to reflect the 0.3 release
• Align with crossplane/README.md focused on new user eval and on-boarding UX:
  • evaluate if Crossplane will solve your problems in < 1 min
  • get started with Crossplane in < 5 minutes
• Align with ROADMAP.md is updated to reflect 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5 releases through end of 2019
  • understand the current and future state of the project at a high-level in < 2 minutes, so they can quickly learn using the links from crossplane.io to GitHub, Slack, etc.
• updated to reflect the refined project vision and planned 2019 content

What does it look like when we're done?

The user understands the problems Crossplane is solving, if it's applicable to them, and how to get started as a new user or contributor, without having to worry about sifting through content which is not relevant.

• Terms are defined, consistently used, and the definitions are easy to find
• The documentation reflects the 0.3 release
• Unnecessary content has been removed
• User scenarios (such as getting started) should be well-documented, easy to find, and brief, including:
  • Evaluating Crossplane for a user's use-case
  • Getting started with Crossplane
  • Evaluating and consuming infra stacks (including comparing infra stack capabilities and maturity)
• Update content to reflect of past, present, and planned future directions, so they're easily understood at a high level in under 2 minutes
• Add a link to the YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC19FgzMBMqBro361HbE46Fw) from crossplane.io

How can we demonstrate this?

• Visit crossplane.io and get a updated high-level overview of the project, click GitHub, Slack for more info
