I do agree that the updated version is currently harder and more confusing to navigate. But I think with the necessary changes it could actually be better than the old wiki style website.
Also a little hint 😉 you can still access the old website via https://oud.ictresearchmethods.nl/Methods (a subdomain which they should keep up as long as maintainable in my opinion)

1 year ago On addition to @NoWarries, we showed the new design during the HBO I Job Event, two weeks ago. The reactions were similar: the old wiki needed a redesign, but a few things should be the same.
Little background: I created this website for myself to get a better overview of the methods, and the HBO I Foundation decided to use it as the official resource. Because of that we need feedback of the users. Currently we're at that phase now. Thanks!
I created a new issue specifically related to the quick overview (https://github.com/HBO-i/ictresearchmethods.nl/issues/181). I will have a look at it the coming week.
Please create more issues if you come across some annoyance. We'd love to hear feedback, seriously. 🙂

Not related to this issue, sorry for that, but maybe put a banner somewhere with this information? I was searching and searching for the old website and I could only find this new one. Which I thought was an unofficial one.
Edit: I know see the paragraph under the Methods header, it is there, but in my opinion it is very easily missed.

I fully agree with you. This information should be placed in an Alert component idealy. Or maybe an option in the sidenav? Probably both. I suggest you make a feature request for this.

For your information, I made a feature request at #183
Describe the bug
Now it hasn't... Now it has a 'quick overview' in plain black and white text without colours separating the categories. The previous site looked a lot friendlier than the current one.
Reproduction
Compare the current site with this: https://web.archive.org/web/20210613183511/https://ictresearchmethods.nl/Methods
How is the current site better?
Expected Behavior
A friendly, cheerful website giving positive vibes about using research methods in HBO Education.
System Information

Severity

Additional Information
What was the problem that you were trying to solve with the new design? Was there a problem? How was the new 'design' validated? Do the developers and designers of the new website used the methods mentioned?
