             Summary: Add dynamic menus, update, links, modern CSS to bigtop site.
                 Key: BIGTOP-1312
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-1312
             Project: Bigtop
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: General
    Affects Versions: backlog
            Reporter: jay vyas


Its a good time, pending BIGTOP-1311, to overhaul the website.  This will help us to grow a larger community around bigtop, right now.  

For this JIRA Lets focus on :

1) modernizing the CSS so the site "looks cool".  I know it sounds arbitrary, but we all know what "good" sites look like, so lets make the bigtop html pages look like a first class website.

2) clarify the 4 main things bigtop brings to hadoop. possibly in a diagram: 
* provisioning (puppet, vagrant, etc), 
* testing
* packaging
* feeding back info to the individual ecosystem projects.  

3) Update any the links where necessary.  

4) Update the "users of bigtop" page.  I think now there are many projects which use bigtop bits which might have not yet made a public announcement. 

Heres a list of steps anyone interested in working  on it.  I think this could be a great intro project for someone new and interested in contributing to bigtop.

*Steps to complete this JIRA* 

1) First implement the changes above.
2) Test it by doing mvn site:site , and open the index.html page created in target/ 
3) Post the patch here for review
4) Commit the patch and then  see the last bit of BIGTOP-1311 jira for directions on deploying it to staging, and pushing it up to full deployment.
