Redesign homepage for engagement (Phase 5)#45
Merged
Conversation
Replace the thin homepage (hero + two paragraphs + an empty listing that
pointed at a non-existent frontpage/ directory) with a focused landing:
- Tighter hero: a one-line value statement ("How do marine organisms
remember and respond to environmental change?") styled via a new
.lab-lead class, plus a condensed intro paragraph.
- An "Explore" section with four entry-point cards (Projects,
Publications, People, Tools & Apps) using a new centralized .nav-card
component built on the existing design tokens (teal icons, navy
titles, hover lift). Bootstrap Icons for the glyphs.
- A real "Recent activity" listing that pulls the 3 most recent posts
(replacing the broken empty frontpage listing), so the homepage now
actually shows current lab activity with images.
The .nav-card / .lab-lead styles live in styles.css with the rest of the
component CSS and inherit the .quarto-dark token overrides, so they work
in both light and dark mode and collapse to a single column on mobile.
Verified in preview: cards render correctly in light and dark mode,
lead is visually distinct, and the recent-activity listing shows three
real posts.
