Landing Page Generator

Generate a complete, deploy-ready landing page from any repository by analyzing its documentation and structure.

When to Use This Skill

• Creating a landing page for a GitHub repository
• Generating static sites from existing documentation
• Standardizing landing pages across multiple projects
• Converting README content to marketing/showcase pages

What This Skill Does

1. Analyze Repository: Read README.md, CHANGELOG.md, package.json/VERSION, docs/, assets/
2. Extract Content: Identify title, tagline, features, installation, screenshots
3. Map to Sections: Hero, Features, Install, FAQ, Footer (+ optional: Risk Banner, Pricing)
4. Generate Landing: Create complete static site (HTML + CSS + JS)
5. Deploy-Ready Output: Include GitHub Actions workflow for GitHub Pages

How to Use

Basic Usage

/landing-page-generator from ~/path/to/repo

With Options

/landing-page-generator from ~/path/to/repo --risk-banner --pricing-table

Available Options

Option	Description	Default
--risk-banner	Add prominent warning/disclaimer banner above fold	false
--pricing-table	Include pricing comparison section	false
--screenshots <path>	Path to screenshots folder	./assets/
--theme [dark|light]	Color theme variant	dark
--search	Enable Cmd+K search	true
--output <path>	Output directory	./[repo-name]-landing/

Workflow

Step 1: Repository Analysis

Read and analyze these files from the source repo:

README.md        → Primary content source (title, tagline, features, install)
CHANGELOG.md     → Version info, recent changes
package.json     → Version number, dependencies, metadata
VERSION          → Alternative version source
docs/            → Additional documentation pages
assets/          → Screenshots, images
LICENSE          → License type for badge

Step 2: Content Extraction Map

Source	Target Section	Extraction Method
README title/badges	Hero	First H1 + shield.io badge lines
README TL;DR	Hero tagline	First paragraph or blockquote after title
README features	Features grid	H2/H3 sections with bullet lists
README install	Quick Start	Code blocks with shell commands
README usage	Examples	Code blocks with examples
README FAQ	FAQ	Details/summary or H3+P patterns
CHANGELOG	What's New	Latest 1-3 releases
assets/*.png	Screenshots	Gallery section

Step 3: Section Generation

Generate these sections in order:

1. Header (sticky)

   • Logo/project name
   • Nav links: Features, Install, FAQ
   • Actions: Search (Cmd+K), GitHub Star, primary CTA

2. Risk Banner (if --risk-banner)

   • Orange/warning style above fold
   • Clear, visible disclaimer text
   • Link to detailed disclosure section

3. Hero Section

   • Title from README H1
   • Tagline from TL;DR/first paragraph
   • Stats badges (version, license, platform)
   • CTAs: "Quick Start" (primary), "View on GitHub" (secondary)

4. Architecture/Overview (if diagram in README)

   • ASCII diagram converted to styled block
   • Or overview cards

5. Features Grid

   • 4-6 feature cards from README features
   • Icon + title + description pattern

6. Pricing Table (if --pricing-table)

   • Plans comparison table
   • Multipliers/usage table if present

7. Screenshots Gallery (if assets exist)

   • Tab-based or carousel gallery
   • Captions from alt text

8. Quick Start Section

   • One-liner install command (featured code block)
   • Setup steps
   • First usage example

9. Risk Disclosure (if --risk-banner)

   • Full disclaimer section
   • ToS considerations
   • Recommendations

10. FAQ Section

    • Generated from README FAQ or common questions
    • Collapsible details pattern

11. Related Projects (if links in README)

    • Cards linking to dependencies/related repos

12. Footer

    • Quick links
    • License badge
    • Version info
    • Author/repo links

Step 4: Output Structure

[project-name]-landing/
├── index.html              # Main landing page
├── styles.css              # Complete stylesheet
├── search.js               # Cmd+K search functionality
├── search-data.js          # Search index (FAQ, features)
├── favicon.svg             # Generated or copied
├── robots.txt              # SEO
├── CLAUDE.md               # Project instructions
├── README.md               # Landing repo documentation
├── assets/                 # Copied screenshots
│   └── [copied from source]
└── .github/
    └── workflows/
        └── static.yml      # GitHub Pages deployment

Step 5: Validation Checkpoint

Before finalizing, verify:

• All sections render correctly in a browser
• Links point to valid targets (GitHub repo, docs, install commands)
• Responsive layout works at mobile (375px), tablet (768px), and desktop (1280px) widths
• Accessibility: skip links present, ARIA labels on interactive elements, color contrast passes WCAG AA

Tech Stack

• No build step: Pure HTML + CSS + JS
• Search: MiniSearch lazy-loaded from CDN with fallback
• Deployment: GitHub Pages via Actions
• Styling: CSS custom properties, responsive, dark theme default
• Accessibility: Skip links, ARIA labels, keyboard navigation

Example

User: /landing-page-generator from ~/projects/my-project --risk-banner --pricing-table

Output:

Creates ~/projects/my-project-landing/ with:

• Complete landing page showcasing the multi-provider router
• Prominent ToS risk banner (orange, above fold)
• Provider cards (Anthropic, Copilot, Ollama)
• Pricing tables from README
• Screenshots gallery
• GitHub Pages deployment ready

Tips

• Always include --risk-banner for projects with legal/ToS considerations
• Screenshots significantly improve landing quality - ensure assets/ is populated
• The skill preserves README language (English/French)
• Review generated FAQ - may need customization
• Test responsive design after generation
