Static HTML, CSS, and a small JS file — no build step required. To preview locally, serve this directory with any static file server, for example:

python3 -m http.server -d docs 8080
# then open http://localhost:8080/

How the version number stays current

The displayed release version is kept fresh by two independent mechanisms:

  1. Build-time substitution. The Deploy GitHub Pages workflow (.github/workflows/pages.yml) replaces every occurrence of the literal {{VERSION}} in index.html with the latest GitHub release tag before publishing. The workflow runs on every push to main that touches docs/**, on every published release, and can be dispatched manually.

  2. Client-side refresh. assets/app.js queries the GitHub Releases API on page load and overwrites any element marked with data-version. This means visitors see the very latest tag even between deploys.
