Structure

index.html          # the single page (all CSS + the "Mru" font subset inlined)
404.html            # custom not-found page
mru-whitepaper.pdf  # the whitepaper (served at a permanent /mru-whitepaper.pdf URL)
favicon.svg         # the orbit-M mark
apple-touch-icon.png
site.webmanifest    # PWA manifest
robots.txt
sitemap.xml
CNAME               # custom domain (mru.space)
.nojekyll           # serve files as-is, no Jekyll processing
LICENSE             # Apache License 2.0 (the code)
TRADEMARK.md        # trademark notice (the Mru name/logo)

  og-image.png      # 1200×630 social/link-preview image
  og-source.svg     # editable source for the OG image
  favicon-light.png # light/dark favicon variants
  favicon-dark.png
  icon-192.png      # PWA icons
  icon-512.png
  jost.ttf          # font source for the inlined "Mru" subset
  _gen_icons.sh     # regenerate favicons/icons
  _gen_og.py        # regenerate the OG image

Everything is inlined into index.html (CSS and a base64 font subset of just the letters "Mru"), so the page is fully self-contained and renders with no external requests beyond privacy-first analytics.

⚠️ Keep the whitepaper URL stable

The "Paper" button links to /mru-whitepaper.pdf. Keep this path stable forever — the PDF itself hard-codes https://mru.space as its home. To update the paper, replace the file in place:

cp ../mru/mru.pdf ./mru-whitepaper.pdf
git add mru-whitepaper.pdf && git commit -m "Update whitepaper PDF" && git push

Local preview

python3 -m http.server 8000
# open http://localhost:8000

Deployment

Maintainers only — the official site auto-deploys.

Merges to main publish automatically to mru.space via GitHub Pages (the CNAME file pins the custom domain; Enforce HTTPS is on). DNS, the www → apex redirect, and contact@mru.space email routing are configured out of band. None of this is needed just to read the code or preview it locally.
