hey @Ayan281 thanks for raising PR.
indeed the UI looks amazing. The cards are amazing.

But i think you missed reading our Contributing Guidelines #57, which mentions that we arent open to have dark themed platform for professional uses.

Also the please donot alter the content of pages without discussion, that the reason i had asked you to discuss before proceeding.

would be glad if you can

1. join discord channel for discussion of UI changes you have in mind
2. revamp page to have light themed ui

hey @Ayan281 just a quick heads up. are you working on this PR ?

[Ayan281]

Hi @12fahed,

Thanks for the review and feedback.

I’ve gone through the contributing guidelines again and understand the concerns regarding the dark theme and content modifications.

I'm currently reworking the implementation to align with the project's preferred light-theme design system while keeping the existing content structure intact. My goal is to preserve the original platform identity and improve the UI/UX without introducing changes that conflict with project guidelines.

I'll also review the merge conflicts and update the PR accordingly.

Thank you for the guidance and patience. I'll push the revised changes soon for another review.

Looking forward to your feedback after the update 🚀

@Ayan281 please push the changes

Hi @12fahed,

Thank you for the reminder.

I’m currently working on updating the PR based on your previous feedback. The original implementation has been revised to better align with the project's light-theme design guidelines while preserving the existing content structure and platform identity.

I’m also resolving the merge conflicts and performing a final review to ensure everything remains consistent with the contribution guidelines before pushing the updated changes.

I appreciate your patience and feedback throughout the review process. I’ll push the revised commits shortly and would be grateful for another review once the updates are available.

Thanks again!
