Potential improvements to the homepage?

Hi everyone - long-time lilyponder, first time poster here -

I'm wondering if there might be room to discuss some improvements to the lilypond.org homepage -- in my personal experience in the past its typical GNU-style dated appearance was a little off-putting, and I suspect for many other composers and musicians who are a little more timid around technology it doesn't give a very reassuring welcome. I don't know if anything like this is in the works already, but is there room for discussing this? I'd be more than happy to help. Nothing dramatic or web3.0 style of course.

On a related note, I think it might be really fantastic if we could figure out a way to set up a REPL on the website somewhere where newcomers can give Lilypond a guided try in their browser before committing to the sometimes-arduous process of installing and getting it running locally. See for example the Haskell homepage https://www.haskell.org/ or the http://tryruby.org website.

Cheers!
Andrew Yoon
