This site is the first project documented here. It is a lightweight publishing system for essays, build logs, field notes, and project case studies.
Content lives in Markdown and MDX so writing stays portable. Astro turns it into a static site, Tailwind provides design primitives, and Effect handles typed configuration and future service integrations.
The visual system starts neutral on purpose. Individual projects can introduce their own layouts, colors, interactive components, and experiments without changing the publishing foundation.
