[dashboard] New and w/o cxt? Redirect to www.gitpod.io

[svenefftinge]

If you go to gitpod.io without any additional context or path and you are not logged-in, you should be redirected to www.gitpod.io.

[FeixuRuins]

IMO gitpod.io should redirect to app.gitpod.io or some other subdomain to clear up possible confusion between the two as well.

[svenefftinge]

The app is the more important place, especially with gitpod and its gitpod.io/# prefix. FWIW github and gitlab do it exactly like this as well.

[AlexTugarev]

Just one thing to add: it should be www.gitpod.io in SaaS context, but TBD in self-hosted.

[AlexTugarev]

We just agreed on handling this for SaaS for now. 🖖🏻
Later on we can discuss if and how to solve this for Gitpod Self-Hosted.

[svenefftinge]

For self-hosted it can stay as is, i.e. no redirect but the login screen.

Bug description

The URL https://www.gitpod.io/docs (or any other direct link to documentation) cannot be accessed directly and results in a 500 error.
The workaround is going to any other page (like the homepage), and then click on 'Docs' on the menu.

Steps to reproduce

Open https://www.gitpod.io/docs in your browser, you'll get a 500 error.

Expected behavior

I expect to be able to open directly any page in documentation.
