Ruby on Rails — Rails Guides get a facelift

When Rails 7.0 landed in December 2021, it came with a fresh new homepage and a new boot screen. The design of the guides, however, has remained largely untouched since 2009 - a point which hasn’t gone unnoticed (we heard your feedback).With all of the work right now going into removing complexity from the Rails framework and making the documentation consistent, clear, and up-to-date, it was time to tackle the design of the guides and make them equally modern, simple, and fresh.We worked with UX designer John Athayde to take the look and feel of the homepage and transfer that over to the Rails Guide to make it clean, sleek, and up-to-date.
