Altron

A private futures desk that trades in the open. Members watch the quant's ES / NQ / MES / MNQ positions live — entry, size, stop, target, and the reasoning behind each one.

This repo is the web app. Right now it's design v0.1 on a simulated feed and demo data; real data (Databento, broker accounts) and auth are not connected yet.

Routes

Path	What
/	Public landing page (marketing + live demo of the desk)
/login	Sign-in for members and the desk (UI only, no auth yet)
/identity	Brand sheet: mark, palette, type, motifs

Develop

npm install
npm run dev      # http://localhost:3000
npm run build    # production build

Node 20.9+.

Deploys

• main → production on Vercel.
• Any other branch / pull request → its own Vercel preview URL (posted on the PR).

Work on a branch, open a PR, click the preview, merge when it looks right.

Structure

app/                 routes (Next.js App Router)
components/landing/  landing sections, canvases, simulated feed provider
components/login/    sign-in screen + dithered mountain scene
components/identity/ brand sheet
lib/                 noise + dithering, number formatting, feed simulator, demo ledger

Design tokens (colors, fonts) live as CSS variables in app/globals.css.

Fonts

Geist and Geist Mono come from the geist package; Instrument Serif from @fontsource/instrument-serif. Both are bundled at build time, so no requests go to Google Fonts.
