Proof of concept for a search-first docs homepage: a large search box that shows Algolia results inline and offers to hand question-like queries to the Kapa.ai docs assistant, followed by four starter cards (what Actors are, using, developing, and monetizing them). All other homepage sections are removed.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Replace the homepage sections with a large combined search box and four
starter cards about Actors. Short queries return Algolia results inline;
question-like input offers to send the query to the Kapa.ai docs assistant.

Adopt the apify.com hero look: orange accent heading, dot-grid
background, solid search button, and Store-style starter cards. Add a
typewriter placeholder that cycles example queries and a "Copy setup
for AI" button. Remove the separate Ask AI button; the assistant stays
reachable from the dropdown and with Cmd/Ctrl+Enter.

Keep the search dropdown above the starter cards, and pin the "Ask AI"
row to the bottom of the dropdown so it is visible without scrolling.

The hero heading uses Lota Grotesque, which the browser discovered late,
so the heading rendered in a fallback font and swapped seconds later.
Preload the same bundled font file the theme's @font-face uses.
