ignacionelson 046567fdfc Say thank you, and make the list scannable at a glance
Both greeting pages read like status reports. The install page opened
":name is installed and yours" without saying which version, the update
page opened "The update finished, and everything came back up", and the
quick-start list was eight full-width rows of two-line descriptions —
about 1400px, with the last two steps and the invitation below the fold
on a laptop.

The install page now thanks somebody for installing ProjectSend and names
the version they are on. The update page thanks them for updating and for
continuing to trust it with their file sharing. Both revert to plain
wording when the page is opened later from a link: thanking a reader
again for something they did months ago is the cold thing, not the warm
one.

The list becomes a two-column grid of icon cards — four rows instead of
eight, 1000px against 1490px, which is one screen. Icons come from the
sidebar's own vocabulary, so the chip on a card is the icon on the screen
it opens. Descriptions are one short clause each; the screen at the other
end explains itself.

And the steps stop pretending to be equally urgent. QuickStart now says
which are essential — the two that make this application do anything at
all, the mail server, the scheduler — and those carry an amber chip and
a label, against the brand colour for everything else and green for the
done ones. Amber is not invented here: it is the warning Alert variant's
palette, reused verbatim so dark mode is somebody else's solved problem.

The Discord card was two identical copies within an hour of each other,
so it is one component now, before the pair could drift.
