What

Rebrands the showcase site to the new dotgibson identity and introduces the logo mark.

Naming / copy

  • site.name dotfilesdotgibson (drives header, footer, and the page-title suffix)
  • <title>"dotgibson — a layered terminal ecosystem"
  • Hero eyebrow → ~/dotgibson · layered ecosystem
  • Dropped hard repo counts (the copy said "ten-repo" in one place and the OG said "nine-repo" — now count-agnostic: fleet / multi-repo / every machine / layered ecosystem)
  • Kept descriptive lowercase "dotfiles" (it is a dotfiles ecosystem) and real repo slugs (dotfiles-core, ~/dotfiles-MacBook)

Logo + visuals

The mark is ~/. — the ~/ shell prompt you already used, plus the leading dot of a dotfile — amber on Tokyo-Night navy inside a spectrum ring. Reproduced as crisp SVG (scales perfectly; better than the source raster):

  • public/logo.svg — the mark
  • public/favicon.svg — rebuilt from the mark (legible down to 16px)
  • public/og.svg — redesigned social card: mark + gradient dotgibson wordmark + tagline
  • Header.astro / Footer.astro — swapped the ~/ text glyph for the mark

Verification

  • npm run build passes (8 pages).
  • SVGs validated as XML and visually QA'd via headless Chromium (logo lockup + favicon at 16/32px + the OG card).

Note

Same logo treatment is going to the org profile (.github) in a separate PR.

…copy

Full rebrand of the showcase site to the dotgibson org identity:
- site.name 'dotfiles' -> 'dotgibson' (drives header/footer/title suffix)
- title -> 'dotgibson — a layered terminal ecosystem'
- Hero eyebrow -> '~/dotgibson · layered ecosystem'
- architecture prose: replace hard 'ten-repo'/'ten machines' counts with
  count-agnostic phrasing (fleet / multi-repo / every machine)

Descriptive lowercase 'dotfiles' (a dotfiles ecosystem) and repo slugs
(dotfiles-core, ~/dotfiles-MacBook) are intentionally kept. Logo/favicon/
OG-card + accent refresh land in a follow-up commit on this branch once
the new logo asset is in hand. astro build passes.

…ader/footer

Introduce the ~/. ring mark (the ~/ shell prompt + the leading dot of
dotfiles) as the brand logo, reproduced as crisp SVG in the Tokyo Night
palette:
- public/logo.svg — the mark (spectrum ring, amber ~/ , cyan dot)
- public/favicon.svg — rebuilt from the mark (legible to 16px)
- public/og.svg — redesigned social card: mark + gradient 'dotgibson'
  wordmark + tagline, count-agnostic
- Header/Footer: swap the ~/ text glyph for the logo mark

Built + visually QA'd via headless Chromium.

Address review on #49:
- Hero stats: '10 repos' -> '∞ machines' (the PR claimed count-agnostic
  copy but this hard stat slipped through)
- Footer .brand: add align-items:center so the new logo mark aligns with
  the wordmark (Header already did this)
