Docs: restructure navigation, add halftone illustrations, clean up hero images (#19728)
## Summary

- **New Getting Started section** with quickstart guide and restructured
navigation
- **Halftone-style illustrations** for User Guide and Developer
introduction cards using a Canvas 2D filter script
- **Removed hero images** (`image:` frontmatter + `<Frame><img>` blocks)
from all user-guide article pages
- **Cleaned up translations** (13 languages): removed hero images and
updated introduction cards to use halftone style
- **Cleaned up twenty-ui pages**: removed outdated hero images from
component docs
- **Deleted orphaned images**: `table.png`, `kanban.png`
- **Developer page**: fixed duplicate icon, switched to 3-column layout

## Test plan

- [ ] Verify docs site builds without errors
- [ ] Check User Guide introduction page renders halftone card images in
both light and dark mode
- [ ] Check Developer introduction page renders 3-column layout with
distinct icons
- [ ] Confirm article pages no longer show hero images at the top
- [ ] Spot-check a few translated pages to ensure hero images are
removed

title: Why Twenty
icon: "heart"
---
You've been choosing between software that's easy to start but impossible to change, and software that's flexible but takes months to set up. Twenty is the third option: **a production-ready CRM you can reshape as you go.**
## What makes Twenty different
Twenty is a platform you can build on, not a product you configure.
<CardGroup cols={2}>
<Card title="Built for Agents" icon="robot">
Agents operate inside your data model with real permissions. Skills, Tools, MCP.
</Card>
<Card title="Secured Extensibility" icon="shield">
The flexibility of vibe-coded tools on secured foundations.
</Card>
<Card title="Modern Stack" icon="code">
React, TypeScript. Your team already knows how to extend Twenty. No proprietary languages, no gatekeeping.
</Card>
<Card title="No Lock-In" icon="lock-open">
Open-source core, self-hostable, export your data anytime.
</Card>
</CardGroup>
## Who is Twenty for
- **Large enterprises replacing Salesforce** — your team
spends more time fighting the tool than using it.
You feel locked-in and the costs keep rising.
- **Startups with technical founders** — you've outgrown
spreadsheets and Notion. You have big ambitions and want
a CRM that scales with you.
- **GTM teams looking for an edge** — you want to build
your own lead scoring, your own enrichment, your own
outbound workflows.
- **Privacy-conscious organizations** — you need to
self-host and own your data end to end. Regulatory,
contractual, or just principle.
- **Salesforce partners** —
your developers are tired of presenting license cost increases to your clients.
You want a better DX, and to deliver projects faster at a lower license cost for your clients.
- **Web development agencies** — your team knows TypeScript, React,
and PostgreSQL. Twenty opens the CRM market
to you without learning APEX or getting proprietary certifications.
## Who Twenty is not for
- **Teams that want a CRM they never have to think
about.** Twenty rewards teams that want to stay close to
their tools and shape them over time. If you want
something fully managed, Pipedrive or
HubSpot will serve you well.
- **Companies that need hundreds of pre-built integrations
today.** Our ecosystem is growing fast, but it's not yet
as broad as Salesforce or HubSpot. If you're comfortable
building what's missing, you'll love it. If not, give us
another year.
- **Organizations where tools are chosen in boardrooms,
not by the people using them.** We don't do steak dinners
and executive briefings. We win with teams that have the
authority to pick their own tools.
