I really like it (including front page animation)! Looks fresh & modern.

There’s still some placeholders here and there so I won’t comment on those.

Some notes on the parts that are filled:
- would also put the slack invite page in the “join the community”
- the menu on the right side in the docs doesn’t show for “how-to guides”
- hovering over a header in the docs shows a permalink button, but the image is 
just a square

Cheers,

Bas
