Okra Product Update: March 2022

⭐️ What's new?

Documentation restructure

We updated the structure of our docs, so that you can easily find the right content no matter what you are looking for. We streamlined our pages for easy navigation, removed duplication, and updated labels to minimize confusion. Check out our updated documentation.

Default widget to list view

When customers are selecting their bank on the Okra widget, the default display of banks is now list view instead of the previous card view. Customers will now be able to search and identify their bank quickly.
