Replace the animated Next.js single-page site with a minimal, typography-driven Astro site. Three pages (home/about, work, projects) share a masthead layout set in Newsreader serif on a warm paper background, with automatic dark mode and navy links. Work history and project writeups move verbatim into markdown content collections; projects render as an expandable text index using native <details>. All animation libraries (GSAP, Lenis, Locomotive Scroll, Framer Motion, Jotai) are removed along with decorative background photos and unused assets. Contact email switches to a permanent address, and the Personal Website project description is rewritten to match the new stack. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Replace the Newsreader serif with Geist Mono throughout for a more modern, technical voice, retuning heading and detail sizes for the smaller 0.9rem mono body. Includes the updated post-graduation bio and work-page intro, and a refreshed home-page screenshot for the Personal Website project entry. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Revamps the website reflecting my progress at the end of summer 2026, before I start my first job as a new grad software engineer. This PR updates the site's visual layout to be text-first, feature fewer animations and visuals, and improves the prose in work/project descriptions. It also changes the framework form using Next to Astro to facilitate the content management and future updates.

Maybe these changes are kind of sad. Maybe the site loses some of its character. I think it's time for a change :)
