cheapseats.dev

The website, docs and blog for Cheap Seats, built with Hugo and a small theme in layouts/ and assets/css/site.css. No web fonts, CDN assets or analytics. Navigation works without JavaScript; a small inline script remembers the chosen appearance.

hugo server          # http://localhost:1313

Every pull request builds with Hugo 0.166.0 (.github/workflows/build.yml). cheapseats.dev is served from its own server, which rebuilds main within five minutes of a merge.

Brand tokens

brand/web/tokens.css is the one source of the brand's colors (light and dark), chart colors, type stacks, spacing, radii, shadows and layout sizes, as --cs-* custom properties, one a line with its usage note. The site builds it into its stylesheet ahead of assets/css/site.css (mounts in hugo.toml, concatenated in layouts/baseof.html) and serves it at /brand/tokens.css; styles use the tokens rather than repeating their values. Two copies follow it:

• The app keeps a copy at internal/server/static/tokens.css: in the app repo run deploy/sync-brand.sh <path to this checkout> and open a PR there; a test in the app fails when its copy is stale or styles use a token this file lacks.
• The design system (Cheap Seats on Claude) reads brand/design-system/tokens.json, generated by node brand/design-system/build.mjs; CI fails when it is stale. Type styles live in brand/design-system/type.json. After a merge, ask Claude to re-sync the design system from this repo.
