# web — the slosh website
Everything the website is made of lives here (plus the docs generator, which
`make docs` shares). One front page, the documentation, and the in-browser
demo, assembled into a single static site:
| path | what | comes from |
|---|---|---|
| `/` | the front page: what it is, the demo video, install | `index.html` + `site.css`, hand-written, no build step |
| `/docs/` | the documentation | `contrib/gen-docs`, the same pages `make docs` renders |
| `/demo/` | the in-browser machine | `demo/`, on its own page so the front page stays light |
| `/recordings/` | scripted feature playbacks the front page embeds | `recordings/`, native format + player — see `recordings/PLAN.md` |
## Build
```sh
make www # the site -> build/www
NO_DEMO=1 web/build-site # ...without the demo (it cross-compiles a guest)
web/demo/serve --dir build/www
```
Deploying is `make www-publish` (or `web/publish`): it builds, sanity-checks
the output, and rsyncs it to `/opt/slosh` on the box — leaving `/arch` (the
pacman repository) and, on a `NO_DEMO` build, the served demo untouched.
The output is only static files. Any host that serves a directory works, with
the one condition the webdemo README already states: `.wasm` must be served as
`application/wasm`.
## Decisions
- **The page is drawn like a session.** Tab strip as the nav, sections as
panes with the title set into the frame, a status line at the bottom. The
palette is `contrib/themes/sl0p.kdl`. This is what keeps it from looking
like every generated landing page: it looks like slosh, because it copies
slosh rather than a template.
- **The demo lives on its own page.** Loading it costs ~11 MiB and a machine
boot; the front page costs two files and no JavaScript beyond the copy
buttons.
- **No framework, no fonts fetched, no tracker.** Two files for the front
page. The system monospace stack everywhere the terminal is being imitated.
## TODO
- Every feature in the tour has its recording now; what remains on the
recordings side (a detach demo, storyline polish, static no-JS posters) is
in `recordings/PLAN.md`.
