Publish /compare/ with three pages answering the choices the app asks
users to make: M3U vs Xtream Codes vs Stalker portal, the built-in web
players vs embedded MPV vs external MPV/VLC, and the desktop app vs the
self-hosted browser version. Each opens with a one-paragraph verdict,
carries a feature matrix whose cells are yes, no or a qualifier, and
emits WebPage / FAQPage / BreadcrumbList JSON-LD — not
SoftwareApplication, because guidance is not a product listing.
These compare IPTVnator's own options against each other rather than
naming other products, so every cell is checkable against this
repository. Pages that name competitors remain phase 3's open half; the
plan now records what has to be decided first.
A registry in src/lib/comparisons.ts drives the hub, the switcher and
the tests. The header gains a Compare entry and the features hub links
across. tools/testing/website-compare-pages.test.mjs checks canonical
URLs, the verdict block, the table, schema, cross-links and sitemap
entries.

Publish /features/ with one landing page per feature people search for:
M3U playlist player, Xtream Codes player, Stalker portal player, TV
guide (EPG) and phone remote control. Each page composes a feature hero
(download and setup-guide calls to action) with the download-page
sections, carries SoftwareApplication (featureList) / FAQPage /
BreadcrumbList structured data, links to the other feature pages and
the matching guides, and uses only mock-backed screenshots.
A registry in src/lib/features.ts drives the hub, the per-page
switcher, the homepage feature cards (now links) and the header
Features entry, so a new page is one registry entry and one .astro
file. tools/testing/website-feature-pages.test.mjs checks canonical
URLs, schema, cross-links, hub coverage and sitemap entries.

Publish "How to Add an Xtream Codes Account to IPTVnator" as the first
evergreen guide: what the server URL, username and password are, the
Add playlist flow with the connection test and its four verdicts, the
Auto-detect method for pasted provider messages, what the import syncs,
Account info, refresh, troubleshooting and a seven-question FAQ. The
guide is cross-linked from the three download pages and llms.txt.
Blog posts gain an optional `faq` frontmatter list: BlogPost.astro
renders it as an accordion after the body and emits FAQPage JSON-LD
next to the BlogPosting entry. LinkCards and PostButton keep internal
links in the same tab.
Guide screenshots come from the release capture script: manifest shots
may carry a `group`, `--group guides` captures only those into
apps/website/public/blog/guides/screenshots/, and a release run skips
them. New setup actions open the Add playlist dialog with the mock's
fictional Xtream credentials (connection test shown), the Auto-detect
method with a labeled hand-out, and the Xtream Live TV view. Dialog
helpers and fixture identities move into shared modules so the driver
and the navigation actions cannot import each other cyclically.
tools/testing/website-guides.test.mjs checks the FAQPage schema, the
download-hub link and the shipped screenshots of every guide;
screenshot-guards.test.mjs covers group validation and output routing.

Add /download/ with Windows, macOS and Linux landing pages: OS-specific
install steps, requirements, feature list, FAQ, related posts and a
platform switcher, plus SoftwareApplication / FAQPage / BreadcrumbList
JSON-LD on every page.
Direct asset links resolve the latest published release from the GitHub
Releases API at build time (asset names, sizes, publish date) and fall
back to the root package.json version when the API is unreachable;
WEBSITE_SKIP_RELEASE_FETCH=1 forces the fallback. The deploy workflow
passes GITHUB_TOKEN to the build. The homepage download cards and the
header Download link now point at the new pages, the homepage schema
reads the resolved version instead of a hard-coded 0.20.0, and the
locale count is corrected to 19.
tools/testing/website-download-pages.test.mjs checks titles, canonicals,
direct asset links, structured data, cross-links and sitemap entries of
the built output; nx test website runs it beside the Giscus test.

Create a new IPTVnator website using Astro 5 + Tailwind CSS within the Nx monorepo.
Features include a landing page with hero section, feature grid with auto-scrolling
carousel, screenshot showcase, download CTA, blog with MDX content collections,
and a GitHub Pages deployment workflow. Design uses a cinematic broadcast aesthetic
with TV-effect hover animations, Playfair Display serif typography, and warm dark
surfaces. Also fixes .gitignore to cover nested node_modules directories.
