I thought the Kdevelop website was using Drupal 8 that is still getting
EOL in November 2021.

Yes the current website is not bad. The big weakness in my opinion is the
homepage. It is showing a big list of screenshots and I think an good and
simple improvement would be to replace those with the feature page, since it
gives a better overview of all features (and is a lot faster to load). The
text on the homepage should be left aligned instead of centered.

This simple changes could be made without any change to the backend or
the theme. So if anyone with access to the drupal instance want to make
them, it would be nice. Bigger changes will need more work.
