Hi,

Post Devconf 2016, I had a short conversation with Petr Hracek regarding adding content for Secondary architectures[1] in Fedora. I liked the idea behind developer portal creation and the way currently it looks like.

Few people know how to work with Fedora Secondary architectures (e.g. building packages, fixing architecture specific build failures, getting access to a secondary architecture machines). One of the main reason for adding Secondary Architectures content is to provide all sorts of required and updated information to developers or newcomers at one place.

While writing about Secondary Architectures for developer portal, I noticed that it doesn't fit well in any of the existing sections (taken from master branch) which is Start a Project, Get tools,  Languages & databases, Deploy and distribute. Meanwhile, I thought why not create a new section which is dedicated to Architectures in general.

A new section with name Architectures make sense to me where we can include:

* Information for all architectures on which Fedora deal with
* We can have three sub-sections:
      * Primary Architectures -
ARM v7, x86_64, i686
      * Secondary
Architectures -  PowerPc, s3909x, AArch64
      * Other Architectures - Not yet supported in Fedora e.g.  Fedora Remix for ARM 

*  Each architectures will be explained separately w.r.t. working with that arch in Fedora
*  Including common build failures in packages and possible reasons of failures will also be useful for a package maintainers to fix build failures quickly.

This is a draft proposal as per my working experience with Fedora. I have worked a bit on it and attached a screenshot in email how this section would look like. I understand that work is required to make UI consistent with developer portal.

I would like to get your opinion/ feedback so that further work can be done to see it available on Fedora Developer Portal.


Thanks,
Sinny
