I love it. Including the animation. I think we all need a bit of fun in our work, no matter how serious we are. Even slack has similar animated background https://slack.com/intl/en-pl/ (and they are pretty serious).
I have just two comments: - we should show stable released documentation by default not 2.0.0. I know we are looking at it from contributors point of view, but this page is mostly for users who use "released" software. And I agree with Deng that versions should be in reverse chronological order. - maybe - following recent trends - we should have "dark" mode as well ? The site is very white .... This is a nice-to-have of course and we can add it later as well (but maybe it is simple even now :)). J On Sat, Nov 9, 2019 at 5:56 AM Kevin Yang <yrql...@gmail.com> wrote: > Excellent work!
