Is this a BUG REPORT or FEATURE REQUEST?: feature

What happened: We currently focus on showcasing the fragment list instead of explaining what syna does and where it can be useful.

What you expected to happen: More actionable information.

I really like to use a custom theme for the landing page. One thing that bothers me is that almost no one customizes the theme. If we do it in our landing, as it is open source, users might have easier time customizing their own website.

Ideas for landing page other than customization:

Showcase websites built with Syna
In-depth features
Description

As we have documentation and fragments list pages, we can move them entirely out of the landing page.

If you have any other ideas please list them below and I can work on them right away.

I understand your point, but us not using our default design seems problematic it sort of says don't use it we don't even do.

To be fair I feel like most using our default one confirms it's not so bad overall :) But yeah more variety in the future is something to look forward too.

Agreeing with your points would just reorder:

better description on what syna is
in-depth features 3-6 via items?
showcase websites using portfolio and modal?
