[jira] [Updated] (BIGTOP-3773) Improve Bigtop's webpage and documentation with user-friendly contents

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-3773?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Leona Yoda updated BIGTOP-3773:
-------------------------------
    Description: 
Currently Bigtop's website is simple and documentation is maintained on Wiki.

This works well in some sense, however,
 * Users cannot check at a glance what kind of project they can package, test or deploy. This would not make good first impression on them.
 * The documentations are not allays linked to Pull requests or other updates. It is complicated for users to trace the discussions on background. 
 * Some contents seems old, probably because dropping a document is difficult without discussions.

I would like to resolve the issue by dividing into small pieces, and with discussions.
 * Listing user's and developer's other requests on this Jira Issue.
 * Considering the table of contents (Sub task)
At least it's worth checking nowadays contents.
 ** Writing the contents with a fixed format (.md, .rst, or so on) (Sub-Sub task)
 * Considering the webpage / document generator (Sub task) 
Like other apache project doing, using generators is simple and have a lot of benefits.
At least it's worth updating existing webpage and wiki through discussions.
