Being able to demonstrate right at install that you can build a great push-button blog with Backdrop should be a huge plus.\r\n\r\nRelated is https://github.com/backdrop-ops/backdropcms.org/issues/56#issuecomment-93853228, https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop-issues/issues/870 and https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop-issues/issues/99 which all have to do with more nimble packaging of features (distributions, project packages etc.). We **could** then also ship naked Backdrop with a home page that then says 'OK now what do you want from your site' and allows that to be automatically built from some sort of packaging arrangement. But I'd still say a Big Ole Install a Blog Button would be my preference."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/backdrop-ops/backdropcms.org/issues/comments/94088433","html_url":"https://github.com/backdrop-ops/backdropcms.org/issues/58#issuecomment-94088433","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/backdrop-ops/backdropcms.org/issues/58","id":94088433,"user":{"login":"quicksketch","id":100206,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/100206?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/quicksketch","html_url":"https://github.com/quicksketch","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/quicksketch/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/quicksketch/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/quicksketch/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/quicksketch/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/quicksketch/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/quicksketch/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/quicksketch/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/quicksketch/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/quicksketch/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-04-17T22:27:33Z","updated_at":"2015-04-17T22:27:33Z","body":"I think we could meet the need of creating a \"blog\" content type by simply renaming \"Article\" to \"Post\" in the default profile, as suggested in https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop-issues/issues/742. The only thing remaining from the first tutorial would be creating a block of recent posts (easy enough). The second tutorial is equally simple only it describes making a blog section instead of using the homepage as the blog. That sounds like one possible option as well (bundle a default front page layout instead of using the blog as the homepage).\r\n\r\nThere just don't seem to be enough steps to warrant a different profile. I think the out-of-box experience *should be a blog*, because almost all sites have one anyway."}}
