Accessibility and structure first

The rebuild puts semantic HTML and navigational shortcuts up front—skip links, proper landmarks, descriptive aria labels, and focus-visible styling keep the site usable with a keyboard or screen reader.

  • Each page ships with complete Open Graph, Twitter Card, and JSON-LD metadata.
  • Headers and footers share consistent landmark roles so assistive tech never gets lost.
  • Focus outlines and animated skip links ensure rapid navigation even on mobile.

Simple tooling, fast iteration

Changes land via GitHub branches and auto-deploy to Vercel. No build tooling means I can ship copy edits, new sections, or CSS tweaks directly from VS Code and validate within minutes.

  1. Track tasks in TODO lists, open branches for each batch of improvements.
  2. Preview deploys on Vercel to validate metadata and responsive layout.
  3. Promote to production once accessibility and SEO checks pass.

Follow the changelog

Most improvements start as notes in the blog before landing here. Expect responsive images, analytics, and a roadmap hub soon.
