📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The site landing page was redesigned as a responsive getting-started page. It adds feature cards, editor and agent links, framework links, CLI setup commands, project-import examples, and vocabulary entries for Claude and Hugo.

Changes

Site landing page redesign

Layer / File(s) Summary
Landing page structure and styling
projects/site/src/index.md
The page adds responsive feature-card styling and replaces the introductory layout with a structured header and four feature cards.
Tool and framework resource cards
projects/site/src/index.md, config/vale/styles/config/vocabularies/Elements/accept.txt
The page adds separate editor, agent, and framework card grids. The vocabulary accepts Claude and Hugo.
CLI setup and project imports
projects/site/src/index.md
The page adds CLI installation and project creation commands. It documents CSS theme, JavaScript component, and direct HTML import methods.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 06254

The redesigned onboarding page could expose users to an unverified installer and provide import examples that fail in a directly served browser page. Clarify or correct both instructions before merge.

The heading should remain "NVIDIA Elements" since it shares the same subdomain and the root page heading has a lot of SEO weight.

State the package-resolution requirement.

If this example targets a browser-served HTML page, a bundler or equivalent configuration is required. Browsers cannot resolve the bare CSS or JavaScript package specifiers. Otherwise, use browser-resolvable URLs, such as the documented CDN URLs.
