coffeestrap

We are using that at CoffeeStrap and we just saved a lot of time in development.

The thing is, once I've clicked the CoffeeStrap/blog header once, and it takes me to the blog index page, I'm not going to click the identical CoffeeStrap/blog header again because I expect it will just take me back to the page I'm already on.

I remember when you first mentioned CoffeeStrap on HN and I thought it was some bastard product involving CoffeeScript and Twitter Bootstrap.

Hi Bradley, this has been true for us as well, and this is exactly the spirit through which we are building CoffeeStrap!

We built CoffeeStrap in 4 weeks and we do not have tested extensively everything.

As a regular person I don't think I'd have a clue what something called CoffeeStrap would do other than something related to coffee.

And the Try CoffeeStrap button doesn't help.

Hey asr2bd, Alessandro here from CoffeeStrap.

Hey mtowle, Alessandro from CoffeeStrap.

(2) I live in a not-quite-densely-populated area (Amarillo, Texas), so I can only wonder how vibrant the CoffeeStrap user-base here would be.

How about putting that sentence "CoffeeStrap is a place..." right at the top?

First thing that jumped out at me was the "Try CoffeeStrap" button at the bottom isn't obviously a button - of course, the text gives it away if you're reading carefully, but if you're just skimming the site, it's easy to miss entirely.

Also, the grey on grey text (like for the "What is this?" header) could be improved, and while not a design issue, I would've liked to see a bit about why you called it CoffeeStrap - seems like a weird name for a service like this - brings to mind a Bootstrap tool for CoffeeScript - never would've expected it to be a language-learning tool.

:) Thank you, a second click on the header logo [Coffeestrap /blog] when on blog main page will bring you to www.coffeestrap.com, but we probably need to make it more intuitive!
