Because the semantic list style is removed, the pseudo-element bullet should havearia-hidden to prevent double reading by assistive tech.

The CSS module provides excellent styling for the dark code block component with:
Consistent color scheme and typography
Proper responsive design adjustments
Well-organized syntax highlighting colors
Smooth interactive transitions for the copy button
The implementation follows CSS module best practices and provides a polished user experience.

The introduction of reusable components (ListItems,InfoBox,PlatformGrid,PlatformCard) enhances the documentation structure and maintainability. This approach provides better visual consistency across the documentation.

The conversion from markdown list to theListItems component provides better styling control and consistency. The features are well-organized and clearly presented.

The dark theme variables maintain proper contrast ratios and provide a cohesive visual experience. The color choices complement the overall design system.
310-320:Good styling for text language elements.
The new styles for.language-text elements ensure consistent theming across code blocks and provide proper styling for interactive elements like buttons.

The component elegantly handles both ordered and unordered lists through theorderedList prop and applies appropriate CSS classes. The dynamic list tag selection and proper key usage for list items demonstrate good React practices.
The async clipboard handling with proper error handling and user feedback is well-implemented. The 2-second timeout for the "Copied!" state provides good UX.

Impact Analysis
Improved Quickstart Tutorial with Enhanced Formatting and Interactivity
📢 Medium 🔄 Impacts behavior
The Quickstart guide for CodeRabbit has been replaced with a new, more interactive tutorial that uses custom components for clearer formatting, step-by-step instructions, and richer examples. Users will experience a more visually engaging and easier-to-follow onboarding process, including formatted lists, chat bubbles for example conversations, code blocks with syntax highlighting and copy functionality, and highlighted information boxes.
Test the Quickstart guide end-to-end as a new user, verifying that all steps are clear and actionable. Check that all custom components display and function as intended across devices and themes, and that users can easily follow the integration and review workflows.
Enhanced Introduction Page with Visual Components and Improved Layout
ℹ️ Low 🔄 Impacts behavior
The introduction page now uses custom React components for lists, platform grids, and info boxes, resulting in a more visually appealing and organized presentation of CodeRabbit's features, supported platforms, and informational content. Users will notice improved readability and a more modern look and feel.
Verify the introduction page on different devices and themes, ensuring all lists, grids, and info boxes display correctly and are accessible. Confirm that navigation and links function as expected.
The syntax highlighting theme for code blocks in the documentation site has been changed to "nightOwl" for both light and dark modes, providing a consistent and modern appearance for code samples regardless of the selected theme.
Check code blocks in various documentation pages under both light and dark themes to confirm correct syntax highlighting and visual consistency.

Hi folks,
Thanks for this work. While I appreciate the design improvements already merged with#432 and the goals laid out with#438, I have some reservations about the changes proposed here.
The significant modifications to the pages' source—and the implied changes that they would require to all existing and future documentation—make me feel concerned about the trade-offs involved. I expect that we can find other paths to meeting the design goals of#438, ones that involve a much lighter touch to our source files.
Added source complexity
First and foremost, I see that this PR replaces some Markdown source files with MDX files, which allow React code to be added directly to the page source. While this does bring a lot of potential flexibility to the documentation source, it carries a significant cost in maintainability by weakening the separation between content and presentation.
Unnecessary change of source file types
The codebase already does support calling out to React-based components as needed, by way of themdx-code-block directive. That, I think, obviates the need to recast entire Markdown source files to MDX.
Increased developer friction and maintainability costs
Currently, writers need only know Markdown to improve or author product documentation. This change proposes to instead require that writers learn a Markdown/React/HTML hybrid, including components that are unique to this documentation set. This would add a lot of friction to future documentation maintenance, to say nothing of development.
We'd also have to separately document and maintain these new React components, indefinitely.
Decreased content/presentation separation
In particular, I question adding new React components for common documentation elements like lists, notes, and code blocks, all of which are already well-supported by basic Docusaurus-flavored Markdown, and all of which can be styled through CSS.
What does adding a new<ListItems> component give us, which using ordinary CSS to style<ul> elements can't do?
Added visual complexity
I'd like to know more about the motivation to place various types of content—such as lists and cross-references—inside of colored boxes, rather than allowing them to exist as body text.
This includes the proposal to turn lists of Git platforms into two-dimensional matrices, implying that the position of the elements in different rows and columns carries some sort of special meaning, even though there is only one dimension of data.
Research shows thatreaders tend to skip over "callout" boxes when they're mixed in with body text. These elements are best used sparingly, for either warning labels that are supported by adjacent body text, or for asides that contain interesting but skippable notes.
My concern is that by transforming a lot of naturally body-text elements into colored banners, you'd actually be making the page significantly harder to read and navigate.
Book versus brochure
I suspect that we might have different audiences in mind for this material? A lot of these design elements strike me as more appropriate to "pre-sale" product-marketing pages or blog posts, and not developer documentation.
The readers of these docs don't need their attention grabbed by stacks of info-boxes, or comforted by the presence of familiar brand logos. Instead, they're visiting these pages with the goal of completing a task, and in all likelihood have arrived here with focused intent. The less visual and cognitive friction we present these readers with, the better.
That is, the docs should look more like a book than a brochure.
My request
Here's what I'd like to see next for this PR:
Leave the pages as Markdown files.
Don't introduce React replacements for elements that Docusaurus Markdown already supports.
As much as possible, restyle elements with CSS alone. If you can't use CSS alone and really must introduce new react components, usemdx-code-block sections, exactly as these docs already do.
Let body text be body text. Don't introduce boxes, banners or other breaks to the flow of reading. Authors can carefully insert flow-breaking elements when they need to, sparingly, throughDocusaurus admonitions markup and other techniques.
