Homepage conversion fixes plus SEO guides comparing animated React kits and text effects.
Tightened the homepage conversion path for GitHub stars and email subscribe: clearer asks, equal hero CTAs, an earlier newsletter block, a header star badge, and tracked subscribe/star events in PostHog.
Published an Aceternity UI vs Magic UI vs Animata comparison and a Top Animated React Text Effects (2026) guide for search and answer-engine discovery.
Site
Rewrote star CTAs to lead with why (“Star to follow releases”), made the hero star control a full-size button on mobile, and replaced the icon-only header GitHub link with a visible Star · count pill.
Moved the featured newsletter up (after open source), added a “Just starred?” bridge to email, and made footer/exit-intent subscribe controls use a visible Subscribe button with risk-reversal copy. Made exit intent email-first and added mobile scroll-depth and time-on-page triggers.
Hardened the stars ticker so it shows the real count on first paint instead of a 0,000+ flash. Added newsletter_subscribe and github_star_click PostHog events so conversion can be measured against home sessions.
Docs & blog
Added a neutral surface-based comparison of Aceternity UI, Magic UI, and Animata (landing vs product UI, free tiers, Motion, accessibility, mixing with shadcn).
Added a curated text-effects guide covering ten MIT presets with registry installs, Motion vs CSS guidance, accessibility notes, and ecosystem context.
