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.
- bento-grid: the Occupy Wallets tile is height-constrained (object-contain)
to ~240px wide, but sizes='33vw' made Next serve a 750w file into a 241px
slot (~62 KiB waste). Cap the sizes hint to the real display size.
- blog: add the 'a month later' chapter to the animated-hero post — the
Turnstile 450KB below-the-fold weight, deferred, mobile 75 -> 93 / desktop 99.
The previous commit (e1ff601) put a {/* */} comment between JSX attributes, which is
a syntax error, and it shipped because the commit wasn't gated on the build. Removed.
- 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.
- /contact redirects straight to the home contact form; product CTAs that
pointed at the broken /about#contact now use /contact.
- Bento: custom e-commerce (Occupy Wallets) top-left, Smirk Wallet top-right,
Wownerogue + Neroswap in the middle row; 'art brand' -> 'artist'.
- 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.
- 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.
- Product page at /products/neroswap with exchange descriptions, features, and architecture
- Blog post at /blog/neroswap-aggregator explaining the data pipeline and privacy design
- Added to products listing (first position, yellow color)
- Added to bento grid portfolio section
- Links to neroswap.com throughout
- SEO metadata with keywords, canonical URLs, Open Graph
- Fix homepage heading hierarchy (h2 -> h1)
- Add page-specific metadata to services and about pages
- Fix outline-none on form inputs for keyboard accessibility
- Delete sync conflict files
- Add group class back to bento cards for hover animations
- Use raw CSS for glassmorphism to fix Tailwind opacity errors
- Add TODO.md with production checklist
- Add semantic CSS classes (.section-container, .glass-card)

- **Visuals**:
- Implemented 'Data Ingress' animation with lines starting from edges and converging to a fixed point.
- Added centralized 'Monitor' icon as the convergence target.
- Refactored 'NebulaField' to use percentage-based coordinates for perfect alignment on resize.
- Smoothed animation timing and easing.
- **Micro-interactions**:
- Increased transparency of Bento Grid cards (from 90% to 70%) for better visibility of background elements.
- Added backdrop-blur to cards.
- **Fixes**:
- Fixed 'bg-clip-text' bug cutting off descenders in the main headline.
