2026

  • merope.devv0.1.0

    Phase 0 — toolchain, design tokens, content pipeline, and a verification loop.

    Added

    • Next.js 16 on a fully static export, with both themes resolving before paint.
    • The magnitude scale, doubling as the project status system.
    • A build-time content layer with schema-validated frontmatter.
    • A screenshot harness, so changes get looked at rather than assumed.
