Improvements for new home page (Pricing Calculator and Call to Action)

[GabLeRoux]

Light theme

• GameCI logo not showing properly (only saw this on Safari, Chrome and Firefox are fine)

Details

• GitHub, GitLab and CircleCI logos for call to action buttons are not showing properly on Safari #493

• "Developers that chose us" section could keep a dark background

Details

• Pricing calculator doesn't seem to use the light / dark theme and logos become black on black

Details

Content

• "Developers that chose us" section: We should fill this with a few more logos (we could request the community with an announcement on github for asking people to contribute their logo)

Pricing Calculator

• Right now, pricing calculator always start with Euros. Could be interesting to use user's region if available (is that possible?)
• The price is always 0
• There could be an explanation of what the pricing calculator is and what are the minutes

Suggestions for a fix :

1. We keep it as is (not cool, we can do better than this)
2. We remove it from the homepage (this is quick, but we can probably do better. Still better than how it is right now)
3. We add a note saying GameCI is free, refer to CI providers for actual prices
4. We input prices based on today's values and add something like last updated on 2024-05-08
5. We do like 5, but we create a cron job that will feed itself on a data source to update the values on a daily basis (with last updated on).

Layout

It could be interesting to revisit this in the future.

Other thoughts

• It would be nice to have some SVGs or illustrations that helps explaining what GameCI is.
• It's not clear to me at first sight that GameCI is a technical project, showing some code snippet as examples beside a getting started is usually a good way to show that it's technical 😅
