Find a web designer/UX person for community site

[samccann]

To ensure we start with a good quality site and make this a community effort, we should put out a call for community voluneers with web/ux experience to provide input to the new site (or even design it) based on our list of requirements.

how about:

• starting to do it right now / if it depends on the vote on Community Plans part 1 - DNS & Website, right after it happens (if positive) ? It can take a while
• we should have a spare plan in our pocket ready in case there are no community volunteers: who will design it in this case? There's less then a month before the date we want it to be available for feedback (if i understand correctly). Can we borrow one of RH UX designers? Should we start asking in advance (i.e. right now)? If we are sure in case of emergency we'll get at least a review of a professional designer, it'd be great.
• not to forget to give them the concept doc

Meetings lined up with several design / UX experts in RH to discuss with and consult them

Some feedback from one of those meetings:

• using tailwind

  • inserts md based content into react components
  • typescript?
  • will have blog integrated (wordpress via OSPO) and thus no extra cost
  • will integrate the docs with docusaurus

• base the stack on what the team is familiar with

• it's static
