Summary:

Based on feedback from various sources, we want to rethink the experience on the MDN homepage. We want to add more messaging about what Mozilla and MDN are all about and add clear promos for major features of the site and some CTAs.

Goals:

Clean up huge promo box from home page, replace with:
- Rethink the home page header (to compliment new simple header for the rest of the site)
- Welcome note and messaging about what Mozilla and MDN are.
- CTAs for major sections of MDN (Demos, Learning, Docs)
- Focus on Web developer docs and resources
Create a new MDN website header to use throughout the rest of the site (except for home page)
- Improve upon the simple banner/bar header we use for Demo Studio

Summary:

The Web o Wonder site is being shutdown at the end of June, so we need to make the Demo Studio section of MDN a bit more polished and press/media friendly. As a part of this redesign, we also need to get a couple of pages for the upcoming Demo Studio Challenges that we plan to do monthly to encourage more demo contributions.

Goals:

Freshen up the Demo Studio homepage with more graphics and better layout
- New Demo Studio title/graphic + space for Challenge promos
- No new features/functional changes required
