Website redesign: clearer layout, easier navigation, better content, and much more! post A brand new look star Website redesign star

The Bulma website has been widely redesigned! There's been a lot of work, to say the least:

files
diff

Just see for yourself!

{% include elements/anchor.html name="Navbar" %}

The navbar has been updated with a lighter markup and cleaner design:

navbar

This doesn't affect the current navbars. There's actually a new modifier called is-spaced that was created for this new navbar. Documentation coming soon!

{% include elements/anchor.html name="Customize example" %}

On the homepage, there's a new customization section with a live example:

{% include elements/anchor.html name="Breadcrumb" %}

breadcrumb

A breadcrumb is now visible at the top of each page, to easily navigate up and down the hierarchy.

This has led to the creation of new intermediate pages:

{% include elements/anchor.html name="Links" %}

These intermediate pages have new link boxes that help dive into each sub-category:

footer links

{% include elements/anchor.html name="Previous/Next" %}

Next to the breadcrumb, you can easily navigate to the sibling pages with the previous and next links:

prevnext buttons

These links are also available at the bottom:

prevnextbis buttons

{% include elements/anchor.html name="Categories" %}

There's a new sidebar including a navigation menu with all the categories and sub-categories:

categories menu

{% include elements/anchor.html name="Scroll spy" %}

On some pages below the categories, you'll find a new menu called "On this page" which is actually a scroll spy:

scrollspy menu

{% include elements/anchor.html name="Footer" %}

The footer has been redesigned as well. Among other things, there's a sitemap available:

footer links

{% include elements/anchor.html name="Code" %}

The Bulma website is built with Jekyll. In the process of this redesign, the underlying code that helps maintain this website has been optimized and cleaned up as well.

This well help further updates to be easier.
