singintime.github.io

Personal site for Stefano Baldan — folk musician, audio developer, researcher. Plain static HTML/CSS, no build step. GitHub Pages serves it straight from the repo root (.nojekyll disables Jekyll processing).

Structure

index.html              Single-page parallax scroller — the home page, hand-edited
plugins/index.html      Plugins index (deep page)
plugins/duono/index.html  Duono landing page (the donationware page)
cv/index.html           CV (migrated in from the old standalone repo)
assets/
  css/main.css          Brand system — palette + type from the Duono plugin; also the
                        .panel parallax rules (background-attachment: fixed, scrim, etc.)
  fonts/Outfit-Light.ttf Self-hosted (GDPR-safe; do NOT swap for the Google CDN)
  img/                  favicon.svg, plugin shots, bg-*.jpg section backgrounds,
                        CREDITS.md (background-photo provenance + licensing)

Editing the home page

The home page is a single scrolling page with one full-height <section class="panel"> per craft, each with its own fixed background photo (parallax). It's a single hand-edited index.html — no build step. Parallax is pure CSS and is disabled automatically on small screens and for visitors with prefers-reduced-motion. Backgrounds are wired to .panel--<name> rules in main.css; swap a bg-*.jpg (prefer a personal photo over stock) and the CSS already points at the path.

Brand tokens

All colors are CSS variables at the top of assets/css/main.css, taken from DuonoStyle.h (accent #c8b89a, panel #1e1c1a, etc.). Retheme there. Type is Outfit Light throughout; hierarchy comes from size + color, not weight.

Before going live — edit these

• plugins/duono/index.html: replace https://YOUR-STORE.lemonsqueezy.com/buy/duono (two places) with your real Lemon Squeezy checkout URL, and link the manual PDF.
• index.html: tweak the hero/section copy to taste.
• Replace stock bg-*.jpg backgrounds with personal photos as you get them (see assets/img/CREDITS.md for current sources).

Deploy

cd singintime.github.io
git init
git add -A
git commit -m "Initial site"
git branch -M main
git remote add origin git@github.com:singintime/singintime.github.io.git
git push -u origin main

Then on GitHub: the repo must be named singintime.github.io. Settings → Pages → Source: main / root. Live at https://singintime.github.io within a minute or two.

Retiring the old cv repo (do this, or /cv won't update)

A separate github.com/singintime/cv project repo currently owns the /cv path and takes precedence over this repo's cv/ folder. After pushing, either delete that repo or disable its Pages (Settings → Pages → Source: None); otherwise the old Jekyll CV keeps serving and the new one stays shadowed.

Custom domain (later)

Add a CNAME file containing your domain (e.g. stefanobaldan.com), set the DNS records GitHub shows you, and tick "Enforce HTTPS" once the cert is issued.
