Ubuntu App Developer Site incremental improvements
Building upon the foundations of the initial Ubuntu App Developer site, we'd like to expand it on a second design phase.
Depending on the resource allocation from design, the scope might be reduced, so this blueprint is also to discuss the incremental improvements that can make a substantial impact and that we can work on next cycle.
