Captured ideas from session 13 (the v0.2.0 design pass) that didn't make the cut. None are urgent; all are quality-of-life upgrades.

Light mode polish

The dark theme is the brand and most visitors will see it, but light mode is currently inherited browser defaults. ~10 minutes of work to give it a clean inverse palette so light-mode visitors don't get an inconsistent experience.

"Ask me about" line

Five short tags or phrases of things to nerd out on -- different from interests because it's an invitation, not a list. Example tone: "ask me about: small-team SRE, Pokemon Go raid logistics, why Terraform state is the actual product". Adds a clear conversational hook.

"Currently learning"

One-liner about what Jeff is currently learning (Rust? K8s? Something else?). Pairs naturally with the existing "currently reading / playing" line. Shows growth direction and invites conversation.

Favorite-of-each-interest specifics

Weave one concrete artifact per interest into the bio: a favorite trail name, a recent shiny catch, a city builder of the moment. Makes the page read as a person rather than a list of categories. Refresh occasionally.

Background grain / texture

Currently using a single radial gradient. A subtle SVG noise overlay (~3 KB) would add depth without competing with the creed framing. Skipped for v0.2.0 to avoid visual noise; revisit when there's appetite.

The Find me sidebar links https://github.com/Archeious but the account isn't yet hosting public mirrors. Couples to homelab/homelab-IaC#45. Once GitHub mirroring lands, verify the link resolves to actual content.

"Now page" pattern

The bio currently embeds a currently reading / playing line. A dedicated /now page (the now-page convention from nownownow.com) is an alternative if that line starts feeling cramped. Lower priority -- the inline approach is working.

All from session 13 brainstorm; landing page first shipped at v0.2.0 on 2026-04-09.
