Issue: Improve UI/UX of Taskwarrior Website

Description

The current Taskwarrior website could benefit from a modernized and user-friendly UI/UX. Enhancing the layout, visual hierarchy, typography, and responsiveness will make it easier for users to navigate, understand, and interact with the site.

Suggested Improvements

• ✅ Update the color scheme for better readability and aesthetics.
• ✅ Improve typography: consistent font sizes, weights, and spacing.
• ✅ Enhance navigation bar and menu for easier access to important sections.
• ✅ Make the website fully responsive for mobile, tablet, and desktop.
• ✅ Add visual hierarchy and spacing to make sections distinct and easier to read.
• ✅ Improve buttons and links: clear calls-to-action, hover effects, and accessibility.
• ✅ Add animations or transitions where appropriate for a smoother experience.
• ✅ Ensure accessibility (a11y): keyboard navigation, ARIA roles, and screen-reader compatibility.

Why This is Important

• Enhances the user experience, making it easier for visitors to explore Taskwarrior.
• Improves accessibility for all users.
• Encourages contributors to participate in UI/UX improvements during Hacktoberfest 2025.

🎯 Expected Outcome

A clean, modern, and accessible UI for the Taskwarrior website that is fully responsive and easy to navigate, improving overall usability and visual appeal.

Hi @JHAJI01! Thanks for your interest in working on taskwarrior.org. I've moved this issue into the repo for the website.

Improving accessibility and navigation of the documentation site sounds great. That said, I don't think fully-responsive, calls-to-action, buttons, or hover effects are appropriate. It's documentation, not a business.

A few important notes:

• While we welcome any contributions, Taskwarrior is not participating with HackOctoberFest2025, so any interaction with that organization would be up to you.
• We have limited people and time to review changes. Small, focused updates to the site that we can review quickly will be OK, but any large-scale "overhaul" of the site may take a long time to be reviewed, if it is accepted at all. Among other things, we would need to know we can continue to maintain the site in its overhauled form.
• While we don't have specific prohibitions on using LLMs to generate PRs, we expect you to understand the PR as thoroughly as you might if you had written it yourself.
