In the footer if you click on Terms of use and Web Privacy & Security it's buggy

Hi there,
I came across your site, and I would like to give you some feedback on my user experience:

1. Design

• #46
• The Hero's Call To Action doesn't have a distinctive color
• The background of the hero leaves something to be desired
• #47

2. Bad practices

• #41
• #43
• You should reduce the size of the dom and put less elements in it by using pagination for example to avoid long loadings which degrade the performances
• The site doesn't use any caching method, it could be interesting to use a third party like Cloudflare to improve the performance

3. Experience

• #49
• #44

The image http://www.nsa.gov/portals/75/images/about/cryptologic-heritage/center-cryptologic-history/insignia/nsa-insignia-lg.png does not use https

Section 508 is a legal requirement to ensure the accessibility of services offered to the public. Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.0) is a series of checkpoints which ensures that websites are accessible.

The "View Repo" button's contrast is too low. This causes the document to fail an automated accessibility audit:

This appears to be caused by .usa-hero-callout { opacity: 0.9; }

While the aesthetic effect of seeing the stars behind the text is attractive, it does make the text difficult to read.

The repo list could be sorted from the most popular to the least popular because your best projects are not highlighted.

By the way I noticed that all repos.json were written manually which is clearly not ideal because the number of stars, forks, etc. are not updated, and if we used the GitHub api to solve this problem?

https://github.com/OpenAttestation/OpenAttestation generates a 404

The organization is still accessible, but no repos are visible.
I'm not sure if the repo was removed, or if it went private. Either way, it is not accessible.

The image /images/background.png is big, it would be wise to use an image compressor like https://tinypng.com/ for example before putting it online

A big upgrade to USWDS v2 could be a huge improvement too!

For a US government site it would be interesting to have a design more in line with 2023, especially since it is a "code" site

It would be cool if a workflow runs a script that automatically updates the list of repositories to keep it up to date.

The footer logo is not in png or svg it's a pity because we have big borders not very pretty visually
