The site now exists in German (at the root, with /impressum and /datenschutz) and English (/en). A request without a language follows the visitor's choice from the language switch, then the browser language, then German; the old English legal addresses move to /en for good. All visible texts are data in src/content/de.ts and en.ts, so components hold none of their own. The header carries a DE/EN switch whose bit curtain covers the page while it is swapped and reopens at the same reading position. Title, description, canonical, hreflang, Open Graph, the share image, the sitemap and the structured data are per language. The privacy notice now describes the cookie that remembers the chosen language. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# mintel.me
|
|
|
|
Personal website of a senior freelance engineer. Next.js 16 (App Router), pnpm monorepo.
|
|
App lives in `apps/web`. Concept and scope: `apps/web/plans/freelance-relaunch.md` (read it first).
|
|
|
|
## Commands (run from repo root)
|
|
|
|
- `pnpm --filter @mintel/web typecheck` — must pass with zero errors
|
|
- `pnpm --filter @mintel/web test` — unit specs (Vitest); 0 tests run counts as a failure
|
|
- `pnpm --filter @mintel/web test:coverage` — `src/domain` must stay at 100%
|
|
- `pnpm --filter @mintel/web test:mutation` — Stryker on `src/domain`, ~2 min, must score 100
|
|
- `pnpm --filter @mintel/web lint`
|
|
|
|
## How to work here (spec first)
|
|
|
|
1. Write the behavior as concrete cases (inputs, outputs, edge cases, errors) as a `*.spec.ts`.
|
|
2. Run it and confirm it fails for the right reason (missing behavior, not an import error).
|
|
3. Implement the simplest clean solution, run again.
|
|
4. Run typecheck, coverage and mutation. Survivors mean weak specs or dead code: fix one or the other.
|
|
5. Report the exact commands and results. "Done" means they were run on the current code.
|
|
Never weaken, skip or delete a test to make it pass.
|
|
|
|
## Copy rules (client-facing pages)
|
|
|
|
- Never mention AI as the owner's tool, and no internal method vocabulary (specs, TDD, mutation, coverage,
|
|
pull requests). The automation service may name AI as part of what the client gets. Plain language.
|
|
- Modest and factual: no promises the owner did not confirm, no superlatives. See the concept, section 1.
|
|
- One page: everything lives on the homepage. The header has the language switch and "Get in touch", which
|
|
jumps to the contact section (`#contact`). Contact is one email address: no calendar integration, no form.
|
|
The only other pages are the imprint and the privacy notice. URLs of the previous site redirect to `/`
|
|
(see `next.config.mjs`).
|
|
- Title, description and link previews come from `site` in `src/content/de.ts` and `en.ts`.
|
|
The share image is a screenshot of the real hero, one per language: after changing the hero headline or
|
|
its design, run `pnpm --filter @mintel/web share-image` and commit the PNGs in `src/assets/share/`.
|
|
- The email address is kept in parts (`src/content/site.ts`) and assembled in the browser by `EmailLink`.
|
|
Never write the full address into markup, metadata or copy.
|
|
- The hero design (binary-digit headline) is approved: do not change its design.
|
|
- Look at the result before reporting: take screenshots (desktop and mobile), do not ship blind.
|
|
|
|
## Two languages (German is the main one)
|
|
|
|
- German lives at the root (`/`, `/impressum`, `/datenschutz`), English under `/en` (`/en/imprint`,
|
|
`/en/privacy`). The app directory renders both under `app/[locale]`; `proxy.ts` maps the public addresses
|
|
onto it. All routing and detection rules are pure functions in `src/domain/routes.ts` and `locale.ts`.
|
|
- Detection: an address without a language follows the `lang` cookie (set only by the language switch), then
|
|
the browser's `Accept-Language`, then German. `/en/...` is never redirected.
|
|
- Every visible text is data in `src/content/de.ts` and `en.ts` (type `Content` in `types.ts`). Components
|
|
hold no texts: server components take them from `contentFor(locale)`, client components from
|
|
`useContent()`. A new text goes into both files; German uses the formal "Sie".
|
|
- Never name a file `src/i18n.ts` or `i18n/request.ts`: `@mintel/next-config` would switch on next-intl.
|
|
- The privacy notice describes the language cookie; keep it true when the detection changes.
|
|
|
|
## Motion (binary micro-interactions)
|
|
|
|
- Building blocks live in `apps/web/src/components/bits/`: `DecodeText` (mono labels resolving from digits),
|
|
`BitWipe` (headline revealed behind a column of digits), `BitReveal` (picture assembling from bits),
|
|
`BinaryTicker`, `ScrollBits`, `BitBurst`, `BitCurtain` (the language switch transition). Reuse them
|
|
instead of inventing new effects.
|
|
- `DecodeText` is for monospaced text only; in proportional type the changing glyph widths make text jump.
|
|
- Never put an in-view trigger on an element that clips itself away (clip-path): a fully clipped element
|
|
never counts as visible. Observe an unclipped wrapper (see `BitWipe`).
|
|
- Every effect must respect `prefers-reduced-motion` and leave content readable without JavaScript.
|
|
|
|
## Architecture rules
|
|
|
|
- Functional core, imperative shell. Pure logic goes in `apps/web/src/domain/` (no I/O, no clock, no
|
|
randomness, no framework imports; pass `today` etc. in as arguments). Everything there is covered 100%
|
|
and mutation-tested. Pages, routes and adapters stay thin and call into the core.
|
|
- Parse at the boundary into precise types (`Result`, discriminated unions); no nullable state bags.
|
|
- No `any`, `@ts-ignore`, `!` non-null assertions or eslint-disable to silence errors. Fix the cause.
|
|
|
|
## Do not
|
|
|
|
- Read or edit `.env*` (only `.env.example`). Never print or log secrets.
|
|
- Commit scratch files (`tmp*`, `*.log`, `*.tmp`, debug HTML, build output). They are gitignored; keep it so.
|
|
- Use `--no-verify`, force-push, push to `main`, or run `reset --hard`, `clean`, `rm -rf` without asking.
|
|
- Edit `.gitea/workflows/*` or deploy config without asking.
|
|
- Upgrade `vitest` past 4.1.x: `@stryker-mutator/vitest-runner` 10.0.0 runs zero tests per mutant under
|
|
vitest 5 and reports false survivors. Re-verify mutation results after any tooling bump.
|
|
- Add dependencies for trivial things, or touch unrelated code (no drive-by refactors).
|
|
|
|
## Gotchas
|
|
|
|
- `tsconfig` includes `.next/types`: after deleting a route, stale generated files there break `tsc`.
|
|
Run `next typegen` and remove the stale file.
|
|
- Run only one Stryker process at a time; parallel runs share `.stryker-tmp` and hang.
|
|
- Stryker needs `plugins` listed explicitly in `stryker.config.json` (pnpm layout) and ignores the large
|
|
asset folders via `ignorePatterns`; keep them in sync when adding top-level folders.
|
|
- `@mintel/*` packages are `link:` dependencies on a sibling `at-mintel` checkout. The app itself now only
|
|
uses `@mintel/next-config`; the other entries in `package.json` are leftovers from the old site.
|
|
- Pushing `main` deploys to the testing environment; production is deployed from a `v*` tag.
|
|
- Git branches: work on `feat/*`, never directly on `main`.
