💬
Ask Lex Redesign
A refreshed chat experience: a Lex avatar on replies, an animated typing indicator, four suggested starter questions on first open, an auto-growing input box, and properly rendered replies (headings, bold text, and lists instead of raw markdown symbols). Also fixes the page opening pre-scrolled and the cursor not landing in the chat box automatically.
