This site
This site itself: a static Astro build, edited by hand, whose writing and project pages each generate their own social-share image at build time instead of sharing one generic banner.
What it is
No CMS, no database. Content is markdown in the repo, typed against a Zod schema, rendered at build time into plain HTML. Interactivity is a single vanilla script (the tag filter on /projects). Everything else is static.
The one non-obvious piece
Every page’s social-preview card is generated at build time rather than hand-drawn once: a small Satori + resvg pipeline renders a matching PNG for every project and post, using the same fonts and palette as the page itself. A link posted to LinkedIn or Slack shows the real headline and numbers, not a generic banner.
Why no CMS yet
A lightweight CMS at /admin is a planned next step. For now, a markdown file and a git commit is the entire publishing workflow, deliberately, since the volume doesn’t yet justify more.
