The source for renocrypt.com, a writing site on machine learning, AI, and engineering, published under the Matrix Alchemy banner.
This repository builds and deploys renocrypt.com. It is a static Astro site — no runtime server, no theme submodule; everything lives under src/.
- Astro 5 as the static site generator (static output)
- Tailwind CSS 4 via
@tailwindcss/vite, with theme tokens insrc/styles/global.css(day/night aware) - MDX content with KaTeX math (
remark-math+rehype-katex) and Shiki syntax highlighting (github-dark-default) - Content collections (
src/content.config.ts):posts(ML/AI writing) anddev(engineering notes) - RSS (
@astrojs/rss) and sitemap (@astrojs/sitemap); images optimized withsharp - Variable fonts via Fontsource: Schibsted Grotesk, Spline Sans Mono, Unbounded
- GitHub Actions builds the site and publishes it to GitHub Pages
- Custom domain
www.renocrypt.com(public/CNAME), with HTTPS enforced
Requires Node 24 (matches CI).

npm run devThe preview runs at http://localhost:4321. Other scripts:

npm run preview # serve the built ./dist locally
npm run check # astro check (TypeScript + template diagnostics)Each push to main runs .github/workflows/deploy.yml: it sets up Node 24, installs with npm ci, builds with npm run build (astro build), and publishes ./dist to GitHub Pages.
