Replace Next.js 16 + React 19 with Astro 5. Same visual design,
same deploy pipeline, zero client-side framework.
- All components rewritten as .astro files
- Dark mode via inline scripts (no React context)
- Timeline animation via IntersectionObserver script
- Nav active state computed at build time
- Self-hosted Source Code Pro woff2 fonts
- Drop Font Awesome (icons were never loaded)
- Drop unused headshot PNG (1MB, unreferenced)
- Fix pfSense hardware refs (Netgate 1100, not N100)
- Output: 212KB static HTML vs 2.6MB before
- JS shipped: ~700 bytes inline vs ~130KB React runtime
Reorder homepage sections (journey above projects), refine component styles, update copy and data across projects, timeline, and homelab.
Reviewed-on: #5
Replace cyan-green modern theme with terminal-noir aesthetic aligned to
style-guide.md. Hard edges, monospace-first, linear transitions, no gradients.
Introduce Widget component as the single repeatable section primitive:
title bar with horizontal rule, optional badge/meta — all pages and
sections now use this pattern (Glance-inspired data-driven layout).
Design system changes (globals.css):
- Palette: #0a0a0a bg, #111111 surface, #00cc44 status green, #cc2200 alert red
- Drop Montserrat; Source Code Pro primary, system sans for prose only
- Transitions: linear 120ms; no eased animations, no border-radius
Component changes:
- Nav: flat, border-bottom only, lowercase links
- Hero: 56px square photo, status dot, @ email glyph
- ProjectCard: flat bordered card, 2-col grid, no gradient tile
- Skills: key-value rows with dot-separated values
- Footer: minimal text links
Pages: all sections wrapped in Widget; homelab uses gap-px grid for
at-a-glance, services, and ADRs sections. Archive uses flat list layout.
Data: remove gradient field from Project type; add optional year field
