Doc home update by mich-elle-luna · Pull Request #2763 · redis/docs

mich-elle-luna · 2026-02-09T21:28:58Z

Here is a new draft of the docs home page in response to feedback that the current one is overwhelming and to help make the main options more clear at the top of the page. Any and all feedback welcomed and no rush on this one https://redis.io/docs/staging/doc-home-update/

Note

Medium Risk
Substantial homepage markup/layout change with many new/updated links and sections, so risk is mainly around broken navigation, responsiveness, and visual regressions rather than backend behavior.

Overview
Redesigns layouts/home.html to make the docs landing page more intent-driven: replaces the prior long "Get Started" / "Deploy & Operate" card stack with a simplified hero (two primary CTAs), an "AI and search" section with the AI chat search box plus curated AI-related entry points, and several new quick-navigation blocks.

Adds new sections for product positioning (open source → Software/Kubernetes → Cloud), "Choose your next step" link clusters, data integration/observability shortcuts, and a documentation quick-access grid (University/Blog/KB), along with minor copy tweaks and broader font-mono styling.

One broken link; otherwise, LGTM.

This is a partial review. I'd be happy to make some of these changes myself in a separate PR.

+              <div class="px-4 py-2 border-b border-redis-pen-400">


I think it would be useful to have these be buttons as well leading to the home page of each section. In my testing changing "div" to "a" seems to work, and adding the style to transition colors. Would be happy to make the changes myself.

I don't mind the border and red text here too much, but I really don't like the fact that the background is the same color as the page background.

I'd recommend changing this color to match the software color, but then the Red color doesn't contrast well enough for the text. (Actually, as it stands, the text/background could be contrasted a little more - it seems to pass most of the tests but not all of them.) Happy to test colors myself here to see what works best. Maybe also a "Recommended" badge to make it stand out?

Thank you so much Cameron! Yes, any changes you want to work on would be great.

The main thing I notice is that the full-width layout and the narrow mobile layout work OK, but in the "intermediate" width layout, the nav buttons at the left display on top of the content. However, this also happens with the current layout, so maybe we've decided it's not an issue? Anyway, I think the new layout looks pretty good and it crams more information into a smaller space.

The thing with the nav bar appearing over the content boxes still seems to be there but otherwise I'd say it's looking really good :-)

+            Search the <a href='{{ relURL "commands" }}' class="text-redis-yellow-500 hover:underline">complete command reference</a> and the <a href='{{ relURL "integrate" }}' class="text-redis-yellow-500 hover:underline">integrated libraries and tools</a>


Inconsistent link styles break staging navigation

Medium Severity

The new content sections mix two different link styles: {{ relURL "commands" }} and {{ relURL "integrate" }} on line 62 vs ./develop/, ./operate/rc/, etc. everywhere else. On staging (served under a subpath like /docs/staging/doc-home-update/), relURL resolves from the site root while ./ resolves relative to the current page. This means the "complete command reference" and "integrated libraries and tools" links navigate to a different path hierarchy than every other link on the page. The PR reviewer flagged this exact concern about ./ vs direct links for staging consistency.
