Improve/Standardize branding

1. Themes should be consistent across EBP repos documentation. This should in part be achieved by Move our documentation to the sphinx-book-theme #54, and also it would be good to have a logo for EBP and each repo as discussed in First-pass thoughts on the CLI etc jupyter-cache#16 (comment)

2. Visitors to the repos/documentation should get a good first impression that theseare well-supported endeavours. In lieu of having the repos within jupyter org (as discussed in Best way to overwrite the Jupyter Book repository? cli#87) it would be good if the front pages contained some indication that they are "officially endorsed" by jupyter org. Also noting that they are backed by the sloan grant would be good. Including the logos might be a good start:
   
   

#56 is also a related issue

I think it's a great idea - note that we already have a little bit of this with the footers etc across our documentation. E.g.:

But more of this kind of thing would be really good

Looks like a nice theme.

Not sure whether embedding the Jupyter® logo is OK with its trademark policy.

see this issue as well for some brainstorming around a jupyter book logo: jupyter-book/jupyter-book#396 including some mock-ups by folks in the jupyter book community. I kinda liked this one:

I have found out that actually the slanted book logo (the current jupyter book logo) does in fact break the jupyter trademark haha...so we should figure out a different pattern than that.

I'd be +1 on using some of the grant money to hire a designer that can help us prototype some things

Yep fair enough on the Jupiter logo

I kinda liked this one

Err, maybe it’s a matter of perspective, but that doesn’t look like a book at all to me, it just looks like a left arrow

I'm not saying I want it to be the logo, just adding it for inspiration. I agree w/ you that it's a bit of a stretch for a "book" (in that issue I actually suggested making it right-side up,

e.g.:

My bro @DrDrij is a web developer with a great eye and I can cover his time from alternative numfocus funds if he has capacity to work on this?

Hi Folks :) Pity about trademark. Just quietly, I really like the little rocket ship blasting off.

Played around with more logo images for inspiration:
