✅ Initial one-page website
✅ Two-column layout redesign (Jordan's request)
✅ Favicon in Docker image
✅ Open Graph + Twitter Card meta tags
✅ Card container redesign (2026-02-12): main sits in visible card with background+border+rounded corners, sidebar has distinct darker bg, 2px ice-blue divider, wider 1300px layout, backdrop blur.
✅ Comprehensive responsive design (2026-02-12): 4 breakpoints (1024/768/480/360px). Mobile: avatar+name side-by-side, full-width on small phones, safe-area insets for notched devices, 44px touch targets, trait grid 2×2→1col, project grid single-col on mobile.
✅ Custom polar bear avatar (2026-02-12): Replaced generic DiceBear bottts SVG with hand-crafted polar bear face — glowing arctic-teal eyes, aurora backdrop, dark navy background, whisker dots, ambient sparkles. Matching simplified favicon. Reflects "Nanook" (Inuit for polar bear) identity.

🔴 Layout redesign (Jordan direction 2026-02-13): Adopt wider page for desktop. Left side: avatar + titles/tags. Right side: very condensed content layout. Goal: most content fits above the fold without scrolling. Jordan has said the two-column layout "doesn't look two-column" across 3 reviews — this needs a visible, obvious two-column split.
