Keep generated output out of Git, generate it in CI, and upload the _site folder as the Pages artifact.

npm ci
npm run docs:pages

Add richer blog content later

Blog posts in this site can include paragraphs, headings, images, videos, quotes, and code blocks, so tutorials can feel closer to a publishing platform while staying static and fast.

Optional video blocks are supported when you add a real video file or URL.
