# Project Context

## Purpose
Converting the existing static HTML website at markusgraf.ch into a Hugo-based static site. This project maintains the current content while establishing a foundation for future expansion with CV and blog sections.

## Tech Stack
- **Static Site Generator**: Hugo (latest stable version)
- **Templating**: Go templates (Hugo's templating engine)
- **Styling**: Bootstrap (upgrading from current version to latest Bootstrap 5.x)
- **Scripting**: None (no JavaScript/TypeScript at this stage)
- **Deployment**: Static HTML output
- **Version Control**: Git

## Project Conventions

### Code Style
- Use semantic HTML5 elements
- Follow Hugo best practices for template organization
- Use consistent indentation (2 spaces) in HTML and templates
- Keep templates DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) using partials
- Use descriptive names for partials and layouts
- Comment complex template logic

### Architecture Patterns
- **Hugo Structure**: Follow standard Hugo directory structure
  - `/layouts` - Template files (baseof.html, partials, shortcodes)
  - `/content` - Markdown content files
  - `/static` - Static assets (images, fonts, etc.)
  - `/assets` - Files to be processed (SCSS, if needed)
  - `/data` - Data files (YAML, JSON, TOML)
  - `/config.toml` (or config.yaml) - Site configuration
- **Template Hierarchy**: Use Hugo's template lookup order effectively
- **Partials**: Break down templates into reusable partials (header, footer, nav, etc.)
- **Content Organization**: Use page bundles and sections as appropriate

### Testing Strategy
- No automated testing currently implemented
- Manual testing in browsers for layout and functionality
- Playwright for E2E testing will be introduced in a future phase

### Git Workflow
- **Branching**: Feature branches from `main` (e.g., `feature/convert-homepage`)
- **Commits**: Conventional commits format (feat:, fix:, docs:, refactor:, etc.)
- **PRs**: Required for all changes, squash and merge
- **Branch Protection**: Main branch requires review

## Domain Context
Currently migrating existing markusgraf.ch content to Hugo:
- Existing static HTML pages and content
- Current design and layout using Bootstrap

Future planned additions:
- Curriculum Vitae (CV) page
- Blog section

The migration focuses on preserving current content and functionality while establishing a maintainable Hugo foundation.

## Important Constraints
- Must be performant (Lighthouse score >90)
- Must be accessible (WCAG 2.1 AA compliance)
- Must be responsive (mobile-first design)
- Keep output file size minimal

## External Dependencies
None currently required. Site is fully self-contained static HTML.
