Description

Desired Situation
Per the discussion regarding the finalization of the new Kanvas landing page, these links should be updated to point to https://www.kanvas.new.
The goal is to ensure that users are directed to the new marketing and information site (the "www" domain) to provide better context before they enter the application or the internal Layer5 sub-pages.
