Thanks for that, there is no pricing as it's a FOSS framework not a platform. But I get where this is coming from. Nitric currently makes money working with enterprises on cloud solutions using the framework. We do accept sponsors on github maybe that's something we could include as a pricing page?

The framework is backend focused and there is OIDC configuration you can include for authenticating requests to the backend https://nitric.io/docs/apis?lang=python#api-security but nothing at the moment for frontend auth (but always looking for new feature ideas).

I think your point on testimonials is good, the goal is trying to build trust in what we've built using feedback from our community, is there an alternative that you've seen or like better?

Avoiding vendor lock-in was the initial goal of the framework. But we've found that most of our existing user base are actually focused on a single cloud only but find developing with infrastructure from code makes their development experience much smoother, but they still get the benefit of portability from using the framework.

In terms of testimonials, you display a grid -- I think you'd be better off choosing your two best testimonials -- getting rid of the grid and present it like books do -- flip a book over and one or two authors will tell you how good this book is -- and that text cannot be missed -- its centered and in a fairly significant font; your testimonials are in a tiny font <-- or maybe do both idk.

The diagram-image... could be more night-mode-y -- the contrast rn is blasting my eyeballs.
