Short description of error
The website page is working just fine, but i'm reporting from viewpoint of a user not developer. in this case, it's about light. I tried to use sun light object. you''ll obviously say the sun light will work but the sun light in blender doesn't work according to beginners, so they could only rely on blender official page, but they often found only information description about the feature instead of the way out.

                                                              How to make sun light object from blender to shine, because...
                                                             if you open blender and use sun light, it doesn't shine anything ?

If you set the viewport shading mode to Rendered, you should see the effect of a newly added Sun light just fine. Why does it "not work according to beginners"?
