As I said, button style matching our website. Screenshot attached.

The CSS is simple and should be relatively easily findable from the theme sources – it uses the class "button". (FWIW, the blue bottom border is currently applied with the classes "button primary", but this will be legacy code when the new Gutenberg-based theme is out. The docs will likely need slightly modified CSS definitions.)

Cheers,
Pasi

Thanks for the input. Will bring it up in Saturday's meeting. If you could point to a button style you think we should mimic that would be great, or select one from the list at bestcssbuttongenerator.com <http://bestcssbuttongenerator.com> .

    I don't know if the language names need "spicing up", but if you
    insist, I guess you can look at introducing some kind of button
    style for the language links, ideally matching our website looks
    (other parts of the documentation follow our websites visual style
    as well).

    I acknowledge it's a common thing to use flags to represent
    languages, but IMO, it's bad practice.

    The language names are present below the flags and just having
    their names on a blank page doesn't look appealing. Any thoughts
    of how to spice it up if we were to only use the language names.

    It is quite common for flags to be used as language
    representatives, like for example in the keyboard layouts panel
    plugin as alternative for language name abbreviations.

        My suggestion is to use the language names as they are
        representative of languages. Or in other words, languages do
        not have any sensible representative images, so I would not
        use any.

        So what would be your suggestion and an image related to
        languages?

            Please, no flags for languages, as they are not

            Hi Team,

            Here is my idea of what the docs homepage could look
            like, in two variations.

                Hi Team,

                We had the meeting yesterday which Sean, Bernardo,
                Stephen, and I attended, where we discussed our
                plans to improve the documentation. Various meeting
                minutes were put into the main google doc[1] and we
                plan to meet once a week to discuss things to keep
                the pace of work going forward. Each week we'll be
                working on a single docs page/chapter, in a google
                doc I prepare, so that we all have a central place
                to collaborate on its improvement, and can also
                reach out to the community to contribute to. At
                each meeting we'll review the page's edits and
                finalize it and then it will be copied over to the
                git repo.

                Sean will be investigating various options to make
                it easier for contributors to help keep the docs up
                to date. A telegram group[2] has been created for
                those that want to be involved and we can bridge it
                with a #xubuntu-docs irc channel if there are those
                wanting it.

                So for this week, we'll be improving the main
                documentation homepage[3] in this google doc[4].
                During the meeting we agreed upon these changes
                * As this page is not translated, the useful parts
                of the contents of this page will move to the Table
                of Contents (ToC) page, so that it can be translated.
                * The page would become just a language selector
                which leads to the translated ToC page.

                People can suggest ideas of how this language
                selector page can look in the google doc[4] or on
                the mailing list.

                Regards,
                Yousuf
