Pulsar docs refresh

The Pulsar docs have a fresh look. Same content, new chrome — aligned with the Orbit docs and the wider byte8.io marketing aesthetic.

What changed​

  • Visual style matches the byte8.io marketing site — deep dark background, soft rounded surface panels, hairline borders, purple accent (#8B5CF6) sourced from the dashboard primary colour.
  • Homepage rewritten with a hero + stats strip + feature-card sections + CTA band — same pattern as docs.byte8.io/orbit and the byte8.io product pages.
  • Navbar now includes a GitHub link to byte8io/module-pulsar, a Pricing link, and a Dashboard CTA pill on the right.
  • Changelog lives at /blog — release notes will land here from now on.

What didn't change​

The doc content itself is unchanged — quick start, HTTP checks, checkout flows, alert integrations, the GraphQL API reference, the Magento extension health collectors. Same words, just framed in the new shell.

What's coming​

  • More monitoring docs — synthetic transactions beyond checkout (login flow, admin reachability)
  • Algolia DocSearch — once we cross the threshold where local search isn't enough
  • More changelog posts — release notes for the Pulsar Magento extension are catching up here
