End of Q3 update:

In collaboration with the Geth team, we’ve completely redesigned, restructured, rewrote and began rebuilding a new Geth website! We expanded documentation with several new pages and brought content up to date with the latest release of the go-ethereum client. New pages explaining console logs, consensus clients, node architecture, pruning, sync modes, dashboards and tools such as abigen and clef have been added to the docs and much of the existing material has had a substantial overhaul with the aim of giving users a more complete and accessible overview of the Geth software.

The website design has also had a complete rethink. @nloureiro generated three different concepts for the site, and after a few rounds of discussion and refinement with the Geth team we settled on a concept that pulls together a newspaper-like format with command line and retro gaming styles. It’s a striking new look for the site that aligns nicely with Geth’s role as an old-school, OG product that has led the community into the cutting-edge new proof-of-stake era.

You can get a sneak peak at the designs here:

The design and content has been handed over to @nhsz and @corwintines to build. Preview deploys of the mobile site are already available for reviewing and the rest of the site is progressing quickly. We’ll finish development and ship the new site in Q4.
