Colophon
How this room is built. (Dock ⌘ fans to X & GitHub; this page stays at /colophon/.)
Stack
- Astro — static HTML/CSS/JS (`output: 'static'`).
- Markdown essays in
src/content/writing/. - Hostinger Custom HTML — deploy the
dist/folder. - No WordPress, no SSR, no page builder.
Publish path
Chad writes in Drafts. A publish action POSTs JSON to a webhook that commits Markdown to GitHub; CI builds and uploads dist/ to Hostinger. Seedocs/DEPLOY.md and docs/drafts-publish.js.
Inspiration
Interaction model inspired by ped.ro(conversational bio, sparse chrome) — original execution and content, not a clone. Energy also from Benji Taylor’s note that a personal site should feel like leaving the rest of the internet.
Type
Inter (Google Fonts) with system-ui fallbacks. Dark tokens from SPEC §5.2; subtle time-of-day shifts via data-period.
Sound
Optional UI ticks on hotspot open / dock switch. Default: off.
