Have you explored the simplest option: separate "Weweb for devs" and "We web for marketers" landing pages, videos and homepage subsections/columns/tags?

On the video: first impression is that it's heavily Weweb-built template driven like another Squarespace (especially if I stop watching in the first couple of mins before the bit about design systems) whereas I assume from the description in this thread that the design elements marketers can add and what layouts/colours etc they can choose can be fully configured by devs (and the target audience is teams that want to do this) Ultimately I assume you plan on replacing the tutorial on the home page with a video that's snappier, more benefit-focused and more selective about UI examples anyway?

On the previous version of our website we actually dedicated the home page to marketers and had a link in the nav called "For Developers". The for developers page started to rank on google on some requests like "visual builder for react". We are revamping this page now and we'll add it again on the site.

Thanks for the feedback on the video, it's really useful. Makes me think that on the developer video we should probably start from a blank site and add a custom component in the editor right away.
