Clean rest (frame 0 no longer catches a wrapped ripple: 2 strikes decay before
the seam), no white blowout (pulse strength down + blue core + lower HDR-bloom),
thinner outline, bigger wordmark.
Two fixes to the barns hover vignette after seeing it live:
1. The beta was STRIPPED by the transparent capture: the flash/particle used
additive blending, which writes ~no alpha, so it vanished in the alpha webm
(only the opaque letters survived = that brief white "lightning"). Switched the
flash to alpha-blend and pushed the absorption onto the opaque letters (strong
blue surface-ripple pulse), so the beta now survives on BOTH light and dark.
2. Light + dark mode need different ink: a near-black outline vanishes on a dark
tile; a light outline vanishes on a light tile. Render two baked assets
(barns-light = dark ink, barns-dark = cream ink) and HoverVignette picks by
resolved theme (next-themes). Added a clean rest poster (no active strike) via
a BN_POSTER render so at-rest looks right.
Extruded ChakraPetch wordmark now has an inverted-hull ink outline (crisp toon
edges) and 3 staggered beta strikes across the 5s loop with overlapping ripples,
so the tile stays alive instead of flashing once. Rendered on the 1080 Ti.
Add HoverVignette: a transparent alpha-WebM 3D render that plays over a tile on
hover/focus. Poster-first, preload=none, reduced-motion-safe, Safari-degrades to
the poster (no VP9-alpha). Feature tiles drop the static screenshot (the poster
is the rest state) and grow + lift above neighbours on hover so the animation is
the focus.
Rework the grid to six gap-free tiles: drop Neroswap, shrink Wownerogue to span 1.
First vignette: Barns & Neutrons — extruded 3D "BARNS & NEUTRONS" in the brand
ChakraPetch face with ambient drifting nuclei and a beta strike that fires a
surface-ripple + blue absorption flash across the letters. Rendered transparent
on the 1080 Ti via such-graphics.
Services page was a long undifferentiated scroll of six ad-hoc sections.
Reframe it as four clear pillars, each led by an intro and backed by the
real products behind it:
- Commerce & web: Webshops, custom builds, Grin BTCPay plugin, Evaluetron
- Games & apps: Suchoice, Vegan IQ, Bloomword, Bauhaus Echo, Such Moon Launch
- Crypto & payments: consulting, Smirk Wallet, Hash Bags, Evaluetron
- Education & science: Barns & Neutrons, nuclear training, Numchangers, creds
Add a pillar jump-nav so the page reads as four areas, and a ProofCard that
links shipped products to their detail pages (image tile) and shows
pre-release ones as informational tiles with a status pill.
Also refresh the theming-morph reel with the seamless-loop build (crossfades
the last shop back to shop #1 instead of hard-cutting at the <video loop>).
The five demo storefronts were re-themed to look like different companies
(distinct hero styles, card styles, density, grid, and homepage composition),
so re-snap the hero cards and regenerate the theming-morph reel from the
fresh shots.
Add a "Every surface, not just the homepage" gallery: six live surfaces
across different shops (yoga + coaching booking calendars, an editorial
product page, a dense catalog grid, a crypto product, a themed cart) so the
page shows platform depth the homepage crops hide.
Call out booking/scheduling explicitly: a new "Booking & Scheduling" feature
card, a booking FAQ (feeds FAQ JSON-LD), and a booking-calendar line in the
surfaces lead.
Demo images downsized to lean 1280w JPGs (png -> jpg).
The 'render once, serve cheap pixels' showcase, live. A 7s reel of the same
platform themed as five real demo brands (artisan -> merch -> crypto -> yoga
-> coaching), inside a decorative browser frame, at the top of the webshops
page.
- ShowcaseVideo: poster-first, preload='none' (no download until played),
plays only while in the viewport (IntersectionObserver), pauses offscreen,
and prefers-reduced-motion -> poster only (video never loads). muted +
playsInline for mobile autoplay-on-view.
- BrowserFrame: static decorative chrome so the reel reads as a real shop.
- 16:9 assets ~330-355KB (webm/mp4) + 50KB poster, all within the motion budget.
- /products/webshops: lead with per-tenant theming; add the real platform
features (Printful POD, non-custodial crypto to own wallet, Stripe Connect
with item-margin-only fee framing, SIWE/wallet login, Telegram + email
notifications, automated tax); fix the incorrect "Vercel/Railway" hosting
line to fully-managed self-hosting; remove PayPal/Coinbase (not live).
- Live Demos gallery (new component) with real screenshots of the 5 themed
demo storefronts.
- Add three projects to the portfolio: Bloomword (now live, bloomword.earth),
Meatspace (in dev, meatspace.place), Mushroom Capital (coming soon,
mushroom.capital) with an icon, a detail page (VideoGame + FAQ JSON-LD),
and a sitemap entry each.
- Copy: avoid em dashes (colon/semicolon/comma) across the products area.
Verified: tsc clean, next build green (50/50 static pages).
- Cap the two wildly oversized bento source PNGs so Next can't serve giant variants:
occupy-wallets 1200x837/393K -> 700x488/167K, neroswap 1584x672/1.8M -> 700x297/404K.
(bauhaus/vegan are already 512px and self-cap; privacy-labs was already small.)
- Fix the bento <Image> sizes: object-contain height-constrains the image so it renders
~360px wide in either span; 66vw/100vw made Next serve up to ~750-1200w. Now
'(max-width:768px) 90vw, 33vw'.
- Bump turbo 2.7.4 -> 2.9.16 (GHSA-hcf7-66rw-9f5r, GHSA-3qcw-2rhx-2726). pnpm audit
now clean.
- Monitor terminal: ~4 blinks, type 'such', backspace, ~4 blinks, fade.
- Rewrite the blog post so it tells the accurate story end to end (not an update):
the LCP breakdown showed render delay with TTFB 0 and a free main thread, so it
was neither the network nor JavaScript. It was render-blocking CSS, fixed by
inlining the stylesheet. Server components / dropping framer are kept as honest
supporting steps, not the gate. Swap the architecture figure for a CSS
critical-path figure; mobile now a steady 100.
- New post 'My Animated Splash Was Tanking Our Mobile PageSpeed Score' (draft:false):
the LCP investigation, the data-URI diagnostic, and the real fix (shrink the
use-client boundary / server-render the static parts). Two SVG diagrams.
- Such Moon Launch now live on iOS: App Store link wired on the apps and product
pages.
- Inline <svg> is not an LCP candidate; on mobile the tagline is hidden so the
logo was the only large element -> NO_LCP. Serve the mark as
/images/branding/splash-such.svg and render it via <img> (a valid LCP
candidate, painted from SSR HTML).
- Transition: start the cross-fade on click (shimmer plays as the splash fades
into the content) and shorten durations 1.2s -> 0.8s; snappier and blended.
- Tracer target back to the midpoint (computerX+0.5, computerY+0.5).
- Splash: full-viewport animated SUCH logo cover with four corner nav
buttons; reveals the site once "entered" (scroll-through or Explore) and
does not resurrect on scroll-up. Original hero restored beneath it
(title-anchored monitor pulse + Cherenkov-blue background).
- Logo: traveling Cherenkov glow ring + gentle letter breath (SVG/Framer,
reduced-motion safe); beveled glass corner buttons.
- Services: new "Nuclear & Radiation Modeling" section + "Consulting"
umbrella (payments, crypto, nuclear), MCNP Google Scholar link, and a
not-a-licensed-PE clarification.
- About/founder bio: LLNL credibility + accessibility, art101.io link.
- Products: add Barns & Neutrons, Alpha Doc, Decay Theory (detail pages,
OG cards, SVG icons); client-side sortable grid with coming-soon at the
bottom. New Neroswap + Custom Websites icons (de-duplicated).
- SEO: game pages added to sitemap.
- Copy: dial back em-dashes to colons/commas/parens on home + services.
Rework the per-product OG cards to a single template with a graphic slot: real
app icons for the apps that have one (Bauhaus Echo, Suchoice, Vegan IQ, Such Moon
Launch, Smirk), and thematic SVG glyphs for the rest (Wownerogue dungeon glyphs,
Neroswap candlesticks, a shopping bag for Webshops, a browser window for Custom
Websites). Same layout and accent system so the set reads as one family. Paths
are unchanged, so the page metadata already points at these.
- Add FAQPage structured data + visible FAQ sections to Wownerogue, Webshops,
Neroswap, and Services (covers high-intent 'provably fair', 'no-KYC', and
'revenue share' style queries; visible Q&A matches the schema).
- Generate branded 1200x630 OG cards per product and wire them into each
product page's openGraph + twitter (summary_large_image), replacing the
square app icons that previously got cropped in social previews.
- Sitemap: stop stamping every static page with new Date() on each build; use
a single content-update date so freshness signals are not diluted.
- New /products/wownerogue page (SEO metadata + VideoGame JSON-LD) and
wownerogue-launch blog post covering the fairness, block-timing, and payout design.
- Drop the retired r/CryptoCurrency and MoonPlace references from the portfolio grid,
products index, and custom-websites page; feature Wownerogue + Neroswap instead.
- Add WownerogueLinks component (live instances + GitHub source) and wire it into MDX.
- Remove now-orphaned r-cryptocurrency and moonplace images; add product page to sitemap.
- Home hero subhead rewritten to name commerce/websites/apps/consulting
plus in-house mobile apps and games; primary CTA points to /products
- Portfolio page (/products) title renamed and each product card now shows
a 56px icon beside the title
- Favicon served inverse to the browser color scheme so the tile contrasts
with the chrome instead of blending into it
Product page: added Dice Roll and Decision Duel to features grid (now
6 features), updated meta description and hero text, broadened Snap &
Decide description to include ingredients/labels.
