October 8, 2026 — Redesign

  • Redesigned the Astro + Tailwind CSS variant as a manufacturer site: light grey grounds, rounded tiles with one blue accent per row, tile buttons and product cut-outs on soft panels, with an electric workboat yard in Rotterdam as the demo.
  • New models collection with a page and a features page per model, a comparison table and a view transition from the models list into each model.
  • New configurator that steps through layout and size, opens on the right model from any link and ends in a quote request.
  • New investors, service and charging pages, plus events, careers, team and customer stories collections, each with index and detail pages; news and legal pages rebuilt.
  • The SaaS pages (pricing, blog, changelog, help center, integrations, customers, sign in and sign up) are gone.
  • Every page is composed of section components; unused images, icons, plugins and dependencies removed; docs and the design skill rewritten.

September 3, 2026 — Update

  • Expanded the design system skill at .cursor/skills/ellamae-design/SKILL.md: typography, color usage, spacing rhythm, component conventions, and do/don’t rules extracted from the theme’s own code, so AI coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, Codex) build UI that matches the theme.
  • AGENTS.md links the design rules in every variant.

August 10, 2026 — Update
