# W1: Website
**Status:** planned. The decisions are made (design round 2026-10-06); nothing is built yet. Issue #12.
**Status:** phase 1 is built and checked in a browser (branch `site`, pull request to follow); the Install page works against the real server once Caddy allows the origin (below). Issue #12.
**Goal:** a public home for the project at **roro9stack.net**, separate from the blog (stories) and from Gitea (developers): what it is, how to install it, how to use each App, and the docs.
@@ -55,7 +55,7 @@ Changed before it ships:
- The latest version on the page is the latest release.
- The browser flasher installs the latest release on a Cardputer ADV from Chrome (tried by hand), the page shows the file's SHA-256, and the `esptool` steps are on the same page.
- A release published after the site was built is the one the Install page offers.
- The page makes no request to another origin.
- The home and Downloads pages make no request to another origin, and the Install page only asks git.twis.la.
## Work breakdown
@@ -64,3 +64,30 @@ Changed before it ships:
3. **The home page,** from the design, with the changes above.
4. **Install and downloads:** the flasher with its manifest built in the page, the `esptool` steps, the changelog. Needs the Caddy headers on the Gitea host (the maintainer's side); the page is tested against them once they're in.
5. **Checks,** recorded here.
## As built (phase 1)
- **CI is split.** `ci.yml` (the firmware) has `paths-ignore: site/**, docs/**, README.md, CONTEXT.md` on pushes to `main` and on pull requests. `site.yml` runs `zola check` and `zola build` with a Zola pinned by its checksum, then `site/tools/check_site.py`, when those files change. Gitea's own source (v1.24, read, not run against the 1.27 server) shows that path filters count as matched for tag pushes, so a tag still releases. A change that touches both runs both.
- **The site** is in `site/`: `config.toml`, templates (base, home, install, downloads, 404), `data/` for the App cards and the screenshots' captions, `static/` (stylesheet, theme switch, fonts, wordmark, icons, real screenshots, the vendored flasher). `site/README.md` says how to build it and what the server needs.
- **The home page** follows the design. Changed from it: the hero and the mesh card promise nothing that isn't built (the mesh messenger is a "planned" card), an Install button first, a status box, a "what you need" row, a section of real screenshots, the updates section says the device installs releases itself, an independence line and a statement about cookies and third-party requests in the footer, the latest version read from the Gitea API at build time, and the nav's Wiki replaced. The two hero drawings are generated by `site/tools/make_illustrations.py` (a port of the design's scripted shapes) as inline SVG.
- **The focus ring.** `clip-path` clips outlines, so a focused notched control drops its notches and shows square corners and its ring.
- **The Install page** asks the API for the latest release in the browser, builds the ESP Web Tools manifest as a blob, shows the version, size and SHA-256, and only ever hands the flasher a download from the project's own server for this repository. The flasher library (ESP Web Tools 10.4.0, Apache-2.0) is vendored, trimmed to the ESP32-S3. Fonts (DM Mono, Hanken Grotesk, SIL OFL) are self-hosted.
- **The Downloads page** lists the last 30 releases with their files, read at build time.
- **The wordmark SVGs** from the design carried an embedded C2PA content-credentials block; it is removed from the site's copies.
## Checks (2026-10-06)
| Check | Result |
|---|---|
| The Site workflow's own commands, in a clean container with the pinned Zola | `zola check` clean, build and page checks pass |
| `tools/check_site.py` | 4 pages, 0 problems: titles, descriptions, a language, every image with alt text, every local file referenced exists, nothing loaded from another origin |
| Browser tests (Chromium, 16 checks) | All pass: no request to another origin from the home, Downloads and 404 pages; no horizontal scroll at 1280 and 390 px; a visible focus ring on a notched button; the Install page reads the latest release, shows its version, size and SHA-256, builds a blob manifest naming an ESP32-S3 factory image at offset 0, and loads only git.twis.la; a download on another host is refused; the real server (no CORS header today) makes the page fall back to the esptool steps |
| The pages looked at | Home in dark and light, at desktop and phone width; Install; Downloads |
| `esptool` against the real v0.11.0 factory image | An ESP32-S3 image, bootloader at 0x0, partition table at 0x8000: flashing at offset 0 is right. The command's syntax was checked, not a flash |
**Not checked:**
- **Flashing a real Cardputer from Chrome.** It needs the device on a machine with a browser; the page's flasher logic is tested, the flashing itself isn't.
- **Caddy's headers** on the real server (not applied yet), and **HTTPS on roro9stack.net** (the name resolves, the certificate isn't there).
- **The CI split on a change that touches only `site/` or `docs/`.** This pull request touches both the workflows and the site, so it runs both; the first docs-only pull request will show it.
- Firefox and Safari rendering, screen readers, and a printed page.
- The unverified wording in the Install text is kept to what's known: nothing about how long flashing takes, or what the screen shows in download mode.
