Swiss: drop all-caps on titles, soften heavy ink borders to muted rules
or remove them where background contrast carries the form, balance hero
name weights (smaller lighter first name vs heavier italic last name),
fix unreadable white description text on portfolio hover.
Editorial: enlarge the section "No" mark and set it in italic Fraunces so
it reads as typography instead of a tick, swap the first name into DM
Serif Display for a different J, sharpen the section number caption.
Client tile: contain custom logos at 86% so wide marks like
"The Cooperative Way" stop getting cropped to "operative".
New: optional `date` field on every item type (link/card/portfolio/
youtube/client). Accepts YYYY, YYYY-MM, or YYYY-MM-DD. Rendered
human-friendly with the raw ISO preserved in <time datetime>.
Documented in README and demonstrated in links.example.json.
A hand-rolled linktree alternative — pure static HTML/CSS/JS, no build
step. Drop on any shared host via SFTP and edit data/links.json to update.
Features
- File-driven content via data/links.json (links, projects, YouTube,
client tiles, portfolio pieces)
- Two interchangeable templates: editorial (Fraunces + paper + vermilion)
and swiss (Archivo grotesque, all-caps poster)
- Auto/light/dark theme toggle with no-flash boot script
- Auto-fetched favicons via Google S2 (with image-URL override)
- Lazy YouTube facades (no third-party JS until clicked)
- Adaptive client-logo grid
- Scroll-triggered reveal animations
- ~40 KB total payload, ~12 KB gzipped
The repo ships links.example.json as a demo; data/links.json is
gitignored so personal content stays out of the public repo.
