Summary

The text discusses the redesign of Repl.it's marketing pages, which aimed to improve the visual identity, user experience, and scalability of the platform. The project was motivated by growth and product education, with a focus on creating a consistent tone and voice across all pages. A key aspect of the redesign was the use of Figma for UI design, UX design, brainstorming, and animation, which enabled efficient collaboration and component-based asset creation. Additionally, Repl.it developed its own headless CMS to manage content, allowing for instantly updatable marketing pages that can be easily scaled. The new design aims to reflect the platform's vaporwave-inspired aesthetic and invites talented designers to join the team.
