Snapcraft Website Given a ‘More Modern Look’ (UPDATED)
As before, 3 snaps are showcased across 4 categories: ‘featured’, ‘development’, ‘games’, and ‘sever’. The presentation of these is much improved here, with more prominence given to app icons, and more clarify around publisher and status (e.g., verified, community, none, etc).
If I had a complaint it’s that the 3 snaps showcased are the same ones as before – and those have been the same 3 showcased for (in some cases) years. Showing identifiable/higher quality apps does make sense but some sort of rotation or variance would give people a reason to visit more often.

The redesign project, which Snapcraft.io embarked upon after numerous years of maintaining a consistent aesthetic, has been executed with the aim of modernizing the overall look and feel of the platform.
