Motivation for new feature
We need a page for CE's root route ("/"), when there's no document, whether the user finds the CE website through a search engine or just types the domain directly into the browser's address bar.
We also need a simple initial page that looks simpler than the network editor itself, so it can help users understand what the app is and does and how to start using it.
