+1, thank you Gris! I just wanted to add a note about my reviews here. I reviewed this change as a series of PRs that went into the website-revamp branch. My main focus in reviewing them was ensuring that no content was /unintentionally/ changed.
Note that some content is intentionally changed and/or moved around as described in the designs Gris shared. Other content is separated out from markdown files into yaml files, I believe to aid future translation efforts. This makes it pretty tricky to verify the content based on the diff alone at this point, which is why I want to reassure the community that I had a particular focus on this in my reviews. I'm not perfect though! so more people looking over the changed pages will be great.
