SEF Website Suggestions

Yes please @piumal1999

@anjisvj can you come up with a standard mechanism for the hero image section of all the pages? So every future web page we build will follow a similar layout/structure. Right now the image sizes, logos, amount of text varies from page to page. That does not look good.

I have created the issues for remaining changes. Put a comment on github if someone is working on those issues.

@DESIRA can you pick some issues and work on those?

First result in Google : https://designmodo.com/create-style-guides/

This blog post seems to provide a basic template to create a web site guide. Unless you already have a template, you can use this to populate one for SEF website.

@EngTeam @designTeam, Before move forward with any other changes on the website, Let’s try to finalise the design specs doc! Otherwise, we would have to redo a lot of the work that we do!
