Every page pulled its three typefaces from fonts.googleapis.com and
fonts.gstatic.com, each blog post fetched the author avatar from
githubusercontent.com, and the giscus client script ran on page load. That is
four outside origins contacted before a reader does anything, each costing a
DNS lookup and a TLS handshake on the critical path.
Fonts now come from the @fontsource packages the app already uses and are
emitted as .woff2 beside the site; the avatar is a 3 KB file in public/; and
the giscus embed is created by a "Show comments" button that carries the
configuration as data attributes, so the script is only built when a reader
asks for it.
A delivered page now makes no third-party request at all, verified across the
whole build. The variable Bricolage package names itself "Bricolage Grotesque
Variable", so that exact name leads the display stack in the Tailwind config.
The giscus test now checks the button configuration and asserts the client
script is absent from the delivered HTML.

Tags were decorative: a plain span on every card and post header, with no
page, filter or search behind them, and a vocabulary of 32 slugs across 16
posts where 22 slugs appeared once. They now form a closed vocabulary of ten
topics (src/lib/blog-tags.ts) that the content collection schema enforces, so
an unknown slug fails the build instead of minting a new tag.
Every used tag gets a hub at /blog/tag/<tag>/ with CollectionPage and
BreadcrumbList structured data; the blog index and the hubs show a "Topics"
rail with post counts; and every chip links to its hub. The cards become
<article> elements with the title link stretched over the card, because chip
links cannot nest inside a card that is one big <a>.
Posts are retagged to the new vocabulary. A structural test covers the rail,
each hub, the chip targets, the sitemap and the absence of nested anchors.

* style(website): solid hairlines, Bricolage Grotesque display face, drop TV effects
First of three landing redesign PRs. This one only touches tokens and
surface treatment so every page (home, blog, /features, /compare,
/download) benefits without any structural change:
- Replace every dashed border with a solid hairline; `.card-dotted`
becomes `.card-panel` (bg step + hairline, lighter hairline on hover)
and the section divider is solid `surface-800`.
- Swap the display face from Playfair Display to Bricolage Grotesque
(DM Sans body and IBM Plex Mono unchanged). The italic accent word
that every heading repeated is gone; only page-level h1s keep the
accent, and as colour rather than italic.
- Remove the CRT/TV effects: the `.btn-tv` block and its nine keyframes,
the scanline overlay on the hero screenshot, the CRT hover overlay and
teal glow shadows on feature cards, the pulsing mascot, and the unused
scan/tv-* Tailwind animations.
- The hero download button and the header Download link are now solid
accent buttons; the self-host link is a plain text link.
- Blog tag chips use neutral surface borders so teal stays reserved for
actions.

* style(website): finish the dashed sweep in prose and package rows
The blanket `border-dashed ` removal ate the utility but not the
variant prefix in the blog prose classes, leaving
`prose-pre:prose-pre:...` and `prose-hr:prose-hr:...`; and the
Linux package rows still used `divide-dashed`.

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.

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.
