Personal website of Sharon Cohen — a scientist who builds.

Static, data-driven, zero-dependency site deployed to GitHub Pages.

How it works

• All content lives in content/*.json — editable via Pages CMS (config in .pages.yml) or by hand.
• npm run build runs scripts/build.js (Node, zero dependencies): it bakes the JSON into templates/index.template.html and writes the finished site to dist/.
• Every push to main triggers .github/workflows/deploy.yml, which rebuilds and deploys dist/ to GitHub Pages.

Local development

npm run build     # build once → dist/
npm run serve     # build + serve at http://localhost:8080

Status / TODO before launch

• Phase 1 — real copy: project descriptions, publications, roles, headshot
• Phase 2 — interactive neuron-network navigation (scripts/neuron-network.js)
• Phase 3 — design polish, OG tags + share image, favicon
• Phase 4 — PostHog project key (scripts/analytics.js), Web3Forms access key (both forms in the template), Pages CMS wiring
• Phase 5 — remove the noindex meta tag from the template, launch
