Python.org Redesign Preview

Python.org Redesign Preview
preview.python.org

- I often refer non-programmers to python.org when they ask what that "Python" thing I do all day is. If this is a significant portion of your traffic, I might move the "Python is a programming language..." bit higher up the page.

- "Integrate systems more effectively" doesn't mean much to me, but if the landing page is a tool for devs to convince their managers to let them use the language, could make sense.

- I don't love calling the list 'l' given that many beginners wind up here. It can look like a "1" to those not used to monospace, and is confusing. Come to think of it, the whole beginning example would be very obtuse to anyone not familiar with programming at all: one of the things I love about Python is that it's easy to introduce to a total beginner, with something like "it's like learning French or Italian, not a bunch of random symbols".

- I personally love the way you do the main dropdowns.

- The topbar is nice too, but a bit less noticeable to me than maybe it should be. I think some tooltip-provided explanation (or similar) of PyPi, saying "Package Index", might help those new to Python but aware of what a package index is. This might be unnecessary though.

- The location (and naming) of the "Socialize" link doesn't make much sense to me. What does it have to do with Search? Also unsure why there's the font +/- link there; do you often hear that browser settings are insufficient?

I'm exited to see what I think is a terrific update to the beloved Python homepage. Best of luck!
