I'm confused how a text box with no indication of what you should type in it qualifies as a simple and intuitive interface. It gets (somewhat) better after that, but the landing page is extremely confusing and off-putting.
I do like the concept though.
I agree it may be too minimal. For next release I would like to keep the site minimalist but more open. I'm not sure how to to it right now though ....
Can you put some templates to get started...Starting with a empty page is kind of pain..
I'm not connected with the site.
I've emailed the author with link to this submission.
yes that is a definitely good idea. I was busy with a lot of stuff since last update but new release is planned later this month. Among other feature you will have templates. But in a wiki way so you could edit them, reuse them, inherit & co (like mostly I think on mediawiki). Also semantic and linnks between docs will be improved. It's opensourced (http://bitbucket.org/benoitc/couchit/) so anyone can participate :)
