About

A few improvements to Home (exists) & Features (new) pages.

Preview

Why?

  • Improve user guidance on the documentation of the Cloud product.
  • People say the Database Features page may have too much gravity.
  • Just a little spike to gather feedback. Use it as-is, or as a source of inspiration to build upon.

What's Inside

  • Features: Add canonical feature page for "CrateDB Cloud".
    It is a compressed variant of https://cratedb.com/product/cloud.
  • Features: Refactor "Learn" rubric from "Home".
  • Home: Update layout of entry point page.

I am still unclear about the purpose of the “All Features” pages. They appear to add unnecessary complexity with limited benefits, potentially creating a hurdle in the user experience.

Additionally, this specific patch seems to include outdated screenshots, which might have been taken from other parts of the documentation that also require updating.

I read through the changes. Grammatically and visually, they look good.

Refreshed CrateDB Cloud page looks nicer. Indeed, a newer screenshot could be used. But as I understand it, this is not a new asset, so maybe in a separate PR, we could refresh/modernize all images.

As for the All features page, what I found confusing is the duplication of sub-sections:

Is there a way to change it, and have all features more like a landing page that just list them? or maybe it would make more sense to merge All Features with CrateDB Cloud page (I think I like the last option)? @proddata any oppionon about it?
